Amber Hayes was born an entertainer. She was singing,
performing, even hosting her own 30-minute Country music
show, “Amber and Friends” at state fairs, private parties and
corporate events by the time she was eight.
Over the years, Amber’s talent and performances have garnered
recognition and awards. She was chosen as one of “America’s Ten
Most Beautiful Children” by Globe Magazine, crowned “Junior
Miss of Oklahoma,” was a National Finalist in “America’s Kids,”
and most notably was a finalist for Disney’s television show, “The
Mickey Mouse Club” along with Justin Timberlake, Christina
Aguilera, and Britney Spears. Since moving to
Nashville a few years ago, Amber has had many opportunities to
share the stage with some of country music’s hottest new stars
like Rodney Atkins, as well as legendary artists Marty Stuart, T.G.
Sheppard, Jeannie Seely and others. Amber’s latest achievement
is nabbing the coveted role of Kathy Twitty in the national touring
play, “It’s Only Make Believe,” a story featuring the life and music
of Conway Twitty. The play recently debuted to rave reviews and
a sold out crowd at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center in
Nashville. Amber will continue with the play’s national tour in 2009 while working on
her debut country album.
“The first time I saw Amber onstage she was playing the lead
role, her first, in “Spitfire Grill”. Her superb vocal abilities were
obvious, but I was totally struck by her charm, exuberance and
ability to connect directly with the audience.” — Jeannie Seely,
“Miss Country Soul” / Opry Member
“Amber Hayes is a remarkable talent. Her vocals are exceptional
and she stops the show every night with heartfelt and emotional
delivery of the material. The audiences adore her. A true triple
threat in the highest order. I look forward to a long professional
and personal association.” — Randy Johnson, Creator/Director,
Conway Twitty Musical
“Amber Hayes plays one of Conway’s daughters (Kathy) in the
play “It’s Only Make Believe” and she was really good… She’s
the kind of artist I look for when looking for artists to feature on
NashvilleHype!” — Paul King, NashvilleHype.com
It’s a drawling, blue-collar rocker that celebrates hillbilly music,
pickup trucks, the Dairy Queen, good old boys, hayrides,
dirt roads, farming, families, faith and the FFA. Catchy and
listenable...” — Robert Oermann (“I’m Ok” song review in Music
Row Magazine)
