Name: Hailey

Hometown: Adams, MN

Music Background: I have been singing and performing since I was a child and over the last 4 years this band has become a second family.  

Music Influence: Equal parts Alanis Morissette and Shania Twain if that’s possible. My home as a child was filled with Jefferson Airplane, Heart, Dylan and the Beatles upstairs—and Metallica and Nirvana in my brother’s car on the way to school. Madonna, Janet Jackson, Sheryl Crow, Gwen Stefani, Fiona Apple, Lauren Hill, Jenny Lewis, The Chicks. I’ll always credit Mariah Carey, Celine Dion and Axl Rose for my upper range and Hootie and the Blowfish for my lower range  😂. 

Favorite Songs: Don’t Speak-No Doubt, Golden Hour-Kacey Musgraves, Strawberry Wine-Deana Carter, Don’t Get Me Wrong-the Pretenders, Manic Monday-the Bangles (Prince), Magic Man-Heart, Raspberry Beret-Prince, I Feel Fine-The Beatles. This is such a random smattering for real—there is no way to make this list LOL. 

I love seeing live music and spending time in nature with my family.
