Justin Hayward

Justin (Hap) Hayward is releasing a book: 'Songs About You - Lyrics from The Dead Salesmen to Underminers and Lots of Stuff Inbetween (1988-2012)' .  Hap has been lyricist and singer in the above bands ( plus The Nulty Grips) and a few other outfits since the tender age of seventeen, coming from the late eighties/early nineties Independent Music scene of Ballarat which gave birth to such legendary acts as The Mavis's, The Mockingbirds, The Fat Thing, The Boxing Tostados, Damaged, Spontaneous Human Combustion, The Five O'Clock Shadows, Epicure, The Rye-Catchers, The Fused and the one and only Patrick McCabe to name but a few. Hayward has decided to look back on his lyrical past and 'chuck it in a book!'  His aims are to get this book out to his friends and family and those he doesn't even know, and maybe (if things go well) he can release another book of his short plays down the track.  The funds raised will go to printing, ISBN numbers etc, Graphic Design costs, mail orders and then back into his little self publishing dream.
