($5-10 + DICE Fees | 6:30pm Show) Nelly Hawley-Hayes is a Downbeat award winning jazz vocalist from Richmond, Virginia, and a senior in the University of Arizona’s Jazz Studies program. Come celebrate her final performance as a student!
Nelly’s voice is honeyed, versatile, and intimate. She sings with the intention of igniting the power of healing through the voice and is motivated by her philosophy that music is spiritual and can heal us. Her voice is influenced by the greats- Ella Fitzgerald, Carmen McRae, Sarah Vaughn, and Anita O’day.
For this performance, she's joined by Angelo Versace (piano), Kenji Lancaster (drums), & Colin McIlrath (bass)
A performer of 20+ years, Nelly has recently sung at The Century Room, Hotel Congress, the Gaslight Music Hall in Oro Valley, Tucson Folk Festival, Pima County Fair, St. Philip’s Plaza, Tucson Festival of Books, Deep Sky Vineyards, and other venues and stages in Tucson as well as jazz clubs in Virginia.
