Victor Haynes interview on Colourful Radio 09-June-2024
Music was always in his blood from a very early age, forming a school band and gigging with the band Mainstreet. This was part of the evolution of the singer we know today.
He went off to London to seek fame and fortune in the music industry. Along the way meeting musician, songwriter, arranger, and friend Peter May. They decided to write and created new music together.
Finally getting a deal with Kongo records, who were working with the likes of Omar and Mica Paris at the time.
But the two decided to change record companies and moved on to a more fulfilling deal with Richard Searling and Ralph Tee at Expansion Records.
This is where the story really begins with the first album Optimistic. From there the catalogue of albums continued with “Voices in control.” Remembering the good times.” From the bottom of my heart.” My time is here.” Take it to the top.” Can we talk and Love is the answer.
Hitting the number one in the charts with albums “Take it to the top” and “Can we talk.
And also making it to number one in numerous Soul music charts across the country.
