Hazy and the Jays is a dynamic alternative pop/rock band based in Thames, New Zealand. The group features Izzy Fitzsimons on lead vocals, Harris Elliot-Hogg on guitar, Jacob Rush on bass, and Jacob ‘Sticky’ Wenhold on drums.
Passion for the piano, people and a place, promoting positive performances, providing peaceful pleasure. Poetry for a pianist.
Once upon a time, the great Polynesian explorer Kupe paid a visit to our region, followed a few centuries later by Captain James Cook. Later, the small seaside township of Whitianga became renowned for its kauri sawmilling, and laid out the permanent settlement of the town.
In 2019, when I was 18 years old, I moved to Auckland city to study popular music at Auckland uni. I was fresh out of high school and until then had lived with my parents and brother in Waiomu. Our house was surrounded by bush with big gardens and a stream in the backyard. It was just a short walk down the road to New Zealand.
Prisoners of War love playing live music. Live music is a really important aspect of how we share our creativity, and it always ends up being super fun for everyone. So, for these reasons, we are always super keen to play more shows in front of more and more people, branching out to different areas such as Hamilton and Tauranga to get different audiences.
