About Stephen Bayliss
Stephen's exciting career started around 1989 with two friends writing original, critically acclaimed soul songs. His band was called ‘Watch This Space’ and if you did, you certainly weren't disappointed!
In 1993 Stephen was hand picked to be a part of Sir Cliff Richard's 'Access All Areas' tour. This gave him invaluable performance experience in front of massive audiences, after that tour he joined up with three accomplished musicians to form the band 'Hothead'. Hothead had a diverse range of influences and directions sewn together by Stephen's smooth soulful voice. All this experience forged him into a complete artist in every aspect and Stephen continued to grow and become one of the UK's most successful performers selling out every concert he plays.
In 2003 Stephen produced and appeared in his own theatre shows entitled 'All Night Long' and 'Let There Be Love'. Featuring music from the swinging 50s through to soul classics like Fly Me To The Moon, Let There Be Love and including Lionel Richie's All Night Long of course! Ths show also proved to be a platform for his requested and anticipated original material - material he has since recorded for his album 'Play For Keeps' backed by a 42 piece orchestra which was released in 2005. To this day Stephen still writes and records original music and continues to develop as an original artist. Stephen's stage presence is magical, commanding the mood and audience to participate and have the time of their lives. His repertoire ranges from original Motown, R & B, Soul, Modern popular music and more.
