Artist Portrait

Irving Haywood

voc,
Singer of R&B/Soul

Soul singer - songwriter from Washington, D.C. He replaced Archie Powell, when he left The Ascots (3) Irving “Scacy” Haywood was at C G Woodson Junior High School in 1964 when he sang lead vocals on The The D. C. Playboys “You Were All I Needed” on Arock Records with respected producer Van McCoy and it wasn’t long after that when he helped organize vocal group The Ascots. In the early 1970s Haywood saw new groups cropping up left and right in his hometown so he asked his father for money to post an ad in The Washington Star to start a new group. The elder Haywood didn’t hesitate. Scacy & The Sound Service performed top 40 material at Byrne Manor and other cabarets around DC along with fellow go-go pioneers The Soul Searchers, The Young Senators, and Black Heat and opened for artists such as Stevie Wonder, Carla and Rufus Thomas, and War.
