Hayley Richman

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I posted covers of my favourite songs to YouTube from about 13-18 years old. Making those videos is something I will never forget, and the fact that people saw potential in me even back then is still the biggest compliment. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Fiona Apple, When the Pawn... Jeff Buckley, So Real: Songs from Jeff Buckley Radiohead, Hail to the Thief These were the albums that got me through high school, and the trauma that is coming-of-age. They're also huge musical influences of mine. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Crimson Queen” This song was the first thing I posted in years, and it's actually been out for 3 years already. I feel like this was a turning point for me stylistically, and it shaped the sound of what I'll be releasing soon. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Rufus Wainwright sent me a video saying that he loved my cover of his song. It's still a fever dream. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I feel like I'm only just beginning, so the bucket list is infinite. I took a long hiatus but the next few years will be very busy for me musically.
