I am a professional singer/songwriter/blogger/writer...who has a funny daughter who paints and mocks me, 3 cats, great friends and a entirely insane extended family. Oh, and then there's the hamster...

Auriol Hays joins the morning Cruise to discuss her latest music video 'a better man' and the release of her album, "which chronicles the evolution of a relationship" on itunes next week. She adds that another project close to her heart is the Help 2 Read initiative.Help2read is a registered non-profit organisation working through a volunteer workforce in primary schools in South Africa



Mission
