Described by Uncut magazine as »one of the most charismatic and eccentric pop craftsmen of the past twenty years«, Liam Hayes has been making critically acclaimed records since the 90s. His first single released under the moniker Plush, was cited by the NME as being »..one of those rare records - and incredibly rare debuts - that instantly seems a classic..« Although he emerged from the Chicago indie-rock scene, Hayes is often compared with artists such as Jimmy Webb, Brian Wilson, Laura Nyro and Harry Nilsson. Like some of the best folk-pop or soft soul from the 1960’s and 1970’s there is a timeless quality to his music.
