I am Lil' Miss Hayley.
An 18 year old singer/songwriter, dancer, musician & actress.
 

 I have been making a name for myself on the Swing and Jive circuit for several years now Thanks to The Jive Aces support. I grew up Swing Dancing, so the music is quite natural to me. I first got up & played the Double Bass & sang with the Jive Aces at the age of just 13 and Since then I have appeared with them many times, including at Ronnie Scott's, The Royal Festival Hall, The Pigalle Club & the legendary 100 Club in London, plus The Lakeside Country Club in Frimley Green is where I was awarded Best Young Newcomer 2009 by the Jive Aces. I have also played with Juke Joint Jump, Ding Dong Daddios & Laura B & the Moonlighters. I formed my own all Girl Swing Band while in School (The Jive-Ettz) and occasionally perform as the Swing Kids with Sam Pagget (Sam the Sax Man) & Cody Lee (Boogie Woogie Boy) but unfortunatley we all live too far apart to make this a regular thing.

I have been lucky enough to go with the Jive Aces on several tours in the last couple of years, including: Washington DC, Derry Jazz Festival, Sicily, Breda Jazz Festival (Picturede Right). I also danced in the Jive Aces music video of Bring Me Sunshine which was great fun! Most recently I had the opportunity to record a song on the Jive Aces latest EP "It's Skiffle Time" singing 'Mr Sandman' which I am very proud of. A Mini Skiffle tour included performing at the Regent Street Festival & The most famous jazz club in London - Ronnie Scotts receiving my own standing ovation & encour! The EP is available through the Jive Aces website.

 I am currently studying for a professional diploma in song writing and performance, where I also study guitar and piano at The Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in London, which is an amazing insight into the industry! At some point I would like to get involved in my own Band, as to type of band i.e. Jump Jive/ Swing/Jazz Band or even a more modern pop or rock band. Depending on musicians around to work with! My career so far has been both exciting & diverse but I hope to finally get well established as a musician and songwriter!
 Having changed direction from a performing arts national diploma course at college I have also continued to pursue my dance teaching qualifications & hope to complete them after my song writing diploma course

The next 2 videos are of the Swing Kids with Fast Eddie and the Jive Machine
