Great Show! Chance Hayden's Desert Room show on the last Sunday of the month is not to be missed. He rotates with different and all equally fantastic musicians and singers! His song selection and arrangements are first class! Al's Den is always a great place to see a show too!

The Desert All Stars show at Al's Den is fantastic! Chance Hayden assembled very talented local musicians and their enthusiasm is spirited and entertaining! This show included Lloyd Jones who sounds great, is engaging and such a talented performer! Can't wait till the next show!

What a wonderful show! I took a flyer on getting tix for ourselves and visiting friends from LA when I read the cool concept behind Chance Hayden's "Desert Inn All Stars" (a harkening back to and revival of the venue's jazz roots in the 1950s). What I didn't expect was the virtuosity of all three instrumentalists--Chance on guitar and an amazing stand-up bassist and drummer--and the dazzling musicality and all-out-charm of the vocalist guesting with the trio: LaShonda Steel. Singing jazz standards in a way that made them as fresh today as the day they were written, Ms. Steel was a wonderful addition to the otherwise instrumental trio, all of whom showcased their talents in numerous rounds of solos. If those four played every week at the Crystal? We'd go every week.

Chance Hayden について

Chance Hayden

Always on the go as one of the Pacific Northwest’s most trusted guitarists, Chance Hayden has performed avidly since the mid-00s as a chameleon-like musician who fluidly adapts through jazz, blues, funk and soul. He continuously splits duties as both a bandleader and avid sideman for diverse acclaimed artists such as Farnell Newton, Darrell Grant, Saeeda Wright, Shelly Rudolph, Lloyd Jones, Mel Brown and Jarrod Lawson with whom he toured 15 countries. Hayden's albums Get Somethin’ (2018) and Grab & Go (2020) were followed by the stand-alone single Shag Bag (2022) featuring iconic keyboardist Ronnie Foster of 70s-era George Benson fame. Most recently, Hayden centered his creative focus around the seldom heard baritone guitar with Baritone Gold (2024), showcasing a dozen 60s-inspired originals that span from surf to soul-blues with classic soundtrack vibes. Hayden’s works have been featured in television and film, including the Sony Pictures #1 box office hit The Perfect Guy, the award-winning BET series Being Mary Jane and the popular Netflix series The Waterfront.
