FEATURED ENTERTAINMENT: GROOVE CENTRIC with HEATHER HAYES Being born to greatness doesn't guarantee that greatness will be passed on, but in this case, it's undeniable. Born the daughter of legendary soul singer, songwriter, actor, and music producer Isaac Hayes, Heather Hayes has greatness flowing systemically through her veins. While under the tutelage of her father and music greats like the “Godfather Of Soul”, James Brown, Heather Hayes honed her skills as an entertainer with the unique ability to leave audiences breathless and wanting more. Heather's musical experiences don't end there, she's worked as a singer for artists such as Beyonce Knowles and Arrested Development, danced for Michael Jackson, Sean P. Diddy Combs, and Brian McKnight, and danced and choreographed stage shows for James Brown. The Groove Centric band was started in 2008 in Atlanta, GA. They have since grown into a trendsetting group that tours and performs all around the southeastern United States and the country. Collectively, they have played with a multitude of notables including Mandisa, Jennifer Holliday, Monica, Musiq Soulchild, India Arie, and Al Green to name a few. Their evolution has given way to music that is now a complete embodiment of jazz, neo-soul, R&B, blues, pop, and funk. www.groovecentricmusic.com www.heatherhayesexperience.com Sponsored by Cherokee Distributing Company.
