Haydn Gardner needs no introduction – especially for me. Every time I find myself walking past or through a place where he is playing, I always stop and ask, “what is this guy’s name again? Damn, he is good!” And it’s happened enough times for me to want to know when next Haydn is playing. Well, look at this – it’s all happening at the Mount Nelson’s Planet Restaurant! God, can you imagine a night of dinner and dance in Cape Town’s coolest restaurant? This is pure class on tap!

Now listen up..

With his dynamic voice and impeccable song repertoire, this suave, singing sensation performs lounge-style Swing, Jazz, Rhythm & Blues, Soul and Pop music. As a young, modern song stylist, Haydn Gardner brings the music of yesteryear to life and rekindles memorable eras of song, invoking flair and sensitivity to the melodies and lyrics that make these timeless songs so popular. From super cool and swinging to melodious ballads, as well as seductive Latin rhythms and dance floor classics, this young seasoned vocalist covers a broad spectrum of musical genres to suit clients varied tastes and is South Africa’s favourite to bring panache and superb entertainment to any event. Haydn is backed by THE HOT SHOTS, some of the top Swing musicians in Cape Town, namely Dan Shout on saxophone, Jason Reolon on keys and Jonno Sweetman on drum
