It’s only February but Gladstone QLD born songstress Hayley Marsten, has already graduated from the CMAA Academy Of Country Music, was a Top Ten finalist in Toyota Star Maker, played over 10 shows at her first Tamworth Country Music Festival and is now releasing a new single.
‘On The Rocks’ the 2nd single from Hayley’s debut EP “Even” is a rockin’ song about drinking and getting away from a bad relationship. The EP was created with the help of one of Australian country music’s most famous families – a full-band was assembled by Bill Chambers and recorded at Foggy Mountain Studios, owned by son Nash Chambers.
Hayley’s music features dobro, banjo and steel guitar. All five tracks on the EP were written by the artist who wrote her first song at the ripe old age of seven and cites Loretta Lynn, Kacey Musgraves and Miranda Lambert as her musical influences. With music that is sassy, witty and bold, the artist allows fans the chance to gain insight into her life.
Of her time in Tamworth, Hayley tells us, “I couldn’t think of a better way to kick-off my first ever Tamworth Country Music Festival! Spending two weeks at the amazing Academy Of Country Music being totally immersed in my favourite music and then starting the festival week with Toyota Star Maker Top 10 final, it was the perfect way to kick-off a jam packed week!
Hayley is now back home, performing around Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and Rockhampton before supporting James Blundell at the Harvey Road Tavern, Gladstone on March 5th.
