He has performed at Showtime at the Apollo three times, served as the opening act for a Vibe Magazine promotional event in New York City, been interviewed by Rod Murray of the Hip Hop Connection and performed at the DMV Music Awards Pre-show earlier this year. In addition, he has performed at a number of well known clubs, lounges and fashion events in our nations Capitol.
Mr. Haynes is inspired by his family because they are truly his backbone and have been very supportive from day one! Musically, his inspirations include legends like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, the Temptations, and Donnie Hathaway. Additionally, Mr. Haynes is quite fond of R.
