Influences
I love harmonies so the Waifs are really big on my love list. Its really hard to put influences down as i have loved all music from the womb till now from country to blues to Wierd Al. I guess its the music that touches the soul and those tunes that just blow your mind. Music really is the most awesome emotion one could have. Amen.

The Fairy Song
Cheers to all the Freaky Fairy Folk
Hey there good people, my name is Hayley Small. I am a singer/songwriter acoustic guitar/stomp box player of what has been called folk/rock fairy/pop.
I have been playing and writing music for about 7 years now. Starting off in a duo we played The Indie Temple in the Valley, then to busking in the city, performing at Busking by the Bay and The Woodstock Festival and played various gigs from Brisbane to Coolum to Pittsworth. Also performing for a cause in the Hotel Care Week, raising money for Medical Research and Regional Hospitals. I then became a solo artist and continued to play to the masses for a cause, busking for Cure for Cancer and more recently performing at McDonalds for McHappy Day.
Having finished recording my debut album Dreadlock Cowboy, with Duncan Wood@Touchwood Productions, with the help of some very cool and talented muso’s being John Te-Anini on Bass, Nikk Sandland and Kevin Boorman on lead, Scott Oldfield singing harmonies for me in Memoirs and Jordan Aarts on didge, I am now more concentrating on getting my music out into the big beautiful world.
Released in June 08, the album features 12 tracks that range from mellow to funky, some sweet, and some strange but all groovy tunes that will appeal to all who listen. There is a diverse range of instrumentation and feel to the album which kind of makes it a mood album. Every emotion felt has a song to suit.
Since recording we’ve had a slight line-up change with David Randall on Bass, Nikk Sandland on lead and occasionally Craig on Didge. Playing more venues including Kitty O’Sheas Caxton Street, Gillhooleys Brisbane City, The Key Bar Maroochydore, to the masses at The Caloundra Music Festival and most recently supporting Christine Anu and Deni Hines on their national tour, Taking it to the Streets. We have also received some excellent reviews in Scene, Rave and Tsunami Music Magazines and also appealing to the country side of things with a very cool review in Capital News.
I love music in all its glorious forms. I love listening and I absolutely love playing! I think it's important for artists to get the feeling across to the listening audience and to get them involved. Whether you’re in your car, at a festival or at the pub on a Sunday arvo I want everyone to share in the passion I feel for music. Music is my heart, my soul, my essence, and to be able to share this love I have with others is truly awesome.
