Claude Hay is a solo Blues/Roots performer from Katoomba, New South Wales, Australia. He employs a technique using looping pedals to sample and layer musical phrases using multiple instruments, including guitar, bass, sitar and electronic drums,[1] creating the effect of being an entire band although he is typically the lone performer on his recordings and on stage.

Overview

The debut album from Claude Hay, Kiss The Sky, was released in 2007. This effort was well-received in Hay's home country of Australia, allowing him the opportunity to be the opening act for other popular Australian roots acts Ash Grunwald, The Fumes, Chase The Sun and Dallas Frasca. He ultimately traveled to and performed in the USA, the UK, Denmark, and Germany over several months in 2008.[2]

In 2010, Hay released Deep Fried Satisfied, his second full-length album. The album was released independently in Australia, and on the North Carolina, USA-based label Ingot Rock for all other territories. The response from critics was strong -- Exclaim! writer Kerry Doole called the album, "one of the most entertaining blues-rock albums of the year."[3] The album was also given 5 out of 5 Stars from Cashbox Magazine[4] and received positive reviews in the Seattle, Washington (state) Post-Intelligencer,[5] the Tuscaloosa, Alabama Planet Weekly,[6] The Folk and Acoustic Music Exchange,[7] and the Charleston, South Carolina Post and Courier, with music critic Devin Grant writing, "This is definitely one instance where the album's title accurately reflects the feeling you'll get while listening."[8] Deep Fried Satisfied also did well on the charts, reaching #21 for Blues airplay worldwide and #1 in Australia on the Roots Music Report.[9]

Hay also appeared on NPR's Weekend Edition in November 2010,[10] and later that month made his debut on the top ten of the Billboard (magazine) Blues chart, reaching #9.[11]
