Sonny Smith and the Searchers with opener,Sean Hayes July 8, 2007
San Francisco Bay Area, California 94110
Sean’s fifth and newest release, Flowering Spade (2007), marks the first time Hayes has ever recorded in a studio. Most of the album was recorded live in the studio with horns, accordion and marimba overdubbed. Hayes authored the entirety of Flowering Spade’s thirteen unique songs; they span different moods, tempos, and styles, making for quite a nice ride.
Sean has recently been seen touring the US, UK and Europe – headlining, playing residencies, sharing co-bills or support slots and sometimes with frequent touring partner Jolie Holland. Following the release of Flowering Spade, Sean is hitting the road again – thankfully with his addictive, soulful groove and weathered, acoustic dance-ability in tow.

Sean will be opening for Sonny Smith and the Searchers. Sonny Smith's newest release, Fruitvale, plays like a postmodern barrio version of Our Town set to music. A series of character sketches drawn from the mostly Latino neighborhood in Oakland where Sonny lived for three years.
