Hi all and welcome to our new blog, we will be posting our musings and exciting Hayze info on here for all you good good people to read.
Back in September we launched our new EP, Can't Take it away, with a great gig at McGintys in Ipswich. We also used that gig to showcase our new music video. If you haven't seen it yet then what have you been doing? You can check it out below:
So far its had 898 views which we are really chuffed about. We've also had a number of people asking about how we made it and where the idea came from so I thought my first post on here would be about the video....
Firstly, you can watch some of our other videos at our very own Hayze Youtube channel which can be accessed from here:

and some other videos here to do with the making of our music video for Can't Take it Away here:

Here is a taster of one....
The idea for to use puppets in the video came from our very own drumming superstar, Jim Newstead. Being an independent band meant we didn't have a whole lot of cash to put into a video so we thought we'd rely on our imagination and try and make a video that didn't take itself too seriously while still providing entertainment!
Once we had decided on the puppet idea we approached our friend and local film making nut Steve Henning and ask if he'd film it. He was really up for the idea and we began re-learning all our childhood arts and craft skills in order to make the puppets and build the stage....Everything you see in the video was made by our fair hands (apart from the finger drumkit obviously!).
We then asked our fans to provide photos of themselves for the crowd shots and 'hey presto' we had all our props - including a cameo form ex-Hayze guitar hero Powers.
It was filmed in one evening round my house - no need to book time at Pinewood for us...a dinning room table and some table lamps was enough to set the mood.
So that's about it really....we hope you enjoy the video and pass it around your friends. No doubt we'll be making another one soon so stay tuned!
Cheers
