Hayley Gaftarnick Live! at The Queen!

Hayley Gaftarnick, is an independent singer/song-writer from Leeds. Her husky and powerful voice tells honest and frank stories of a road well travelled. Whilst being inspired by some of the great names of soul and blues, such as Otis Reading, Donny Hathaway, Etta James and Aretha Franklin, Gaftarnick manages to create a sound that is both familiar and yet truly unique.
Having been recognised as one of Leeds’ favourite solo performers, the Leeds-based singer-songwriter has established a fan-base far beyond her home city.
Hayley has attended BBC Introducings' Masterclass and her album 'Circles' is regularly played on Alan Raws' BBC Introducing West Yorkshire show.
“Hayley has been a stalwart of the Leeds Music Scene for years from promoting well respected nights that offer other artists the opportunity to be heard to being a hugely talented performer in her own right with a powerful soulful voice that has made her such a unique talent.”
