Biography

Hayley Oliver was born in south London, the youngest of five girls. At the age of eleven, Hayley was nominated to sing solo at the Royal Albert Hall, and this led to her making her first record (Saint of the Orphans), and subsequent television appearances on "The Wide Awake Club", and "Going Live"

Her success at such an early age made Hayley want to have a career in music, but first she had to finish her education. She studied at the Royal National College for the Blind in Hereford for 4 years where she took Diplomas in business administration. Hayley then studied at the University of Glamorgan , gaining a BA Honours Degree in Business Studies.

In 2002 Hayley entered, and won, the Joe Pasquale's "Curtain Call" talent showcase, which has led to many other concert appearances since then.

In 2006 Hayley released her first self-produced Album “Two Hearts” Which includes some of her favourite classic country songs as well as the title track “Two Hearts Dancing as one”, Written by two of UK’s finest country music writers Sue Bennett and Lorna Flowers. The CD has been receiving great reviews and international radio airplay, winning Hayley the Evy of Canada Award for Best New Artist 2007.

Hayley has been working with Nashville Writers and Producers on Brand new material, and released her second solo album “I can still dream” in October 2009.

When you listen to Hayley sing, you will be struck by her powerful and beautiful voice. Although she has the kind of vocal ability that can lend itself to any type of music, Hayley's first love has always been country music, and her repertoire includes the newest country songs. She is at home singing upbeat numbers and love ballads, and has a way of making those sad songs sound even sadder.

Hayley's perfect pitch and vocal clarity, coupled with that rare ability to deliver a song in a way that touches the heart of the listener, is something that doesn't come along every day. Her talent is quite rare and unique

The lovely Marie Crichton’s BBC Country Show played 'Could I Be More Blue' on BBC Radio Shropshire on Saturday and said "Hayley Oliver really talented, I think she's just wonderful...Wonderful I think, absolutely wonderful at Wolvestock".
