The Official Website For Auriol Hays
Everyone is searching for answers. Perhaps because we have been lead to believe that there is something innately wrong with us, with how we are hardwired. Do you know what I have come to realise? And I speak for only myself. Everything stems from our inability to accept love. That we are made of and […]
I played this song in Cape Town a few months back. It was meant to be played on piano, and I do have a recording on keys. But thought I would share what it sounds like when accompanied by guitar. This is Shaun Francke doing his thing. Or as he is now known, ‘my outjie […]
A year ago. Two years ago. Three years ago. Things do indeed change. A year ago I was so heartbroken, and this was before my father passed. Two years ago even more so, the dreams of a future I thought I wanted proved false. Three years ago? I no longer remember. Or perhaps it isn’t […]
Everyone requires… a silver chord linking us the world above and below. So that we, her Hanged Men and Women can remain sane as we juggle the ordinary, the hard and ugly we are forced to confront everyday. The silver chord can take you to many places.

Wonderful human beings, that’s who I have in my life. Brooklyn, his nickname, just sent me some tracks that I am writing new music to. My day just got so much better. Watch this space! Brooklyn scores movies, I am calling him as I see him. As I can hear him objecting. Hehe I also […]
