Every song allows Hayd to pen another page of his own story. Much like an author, the Michigan-born singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer crystallizes life’s most important moments with unfiltered candor set to a warm soundtrack of sparse piano and guitar. In order to bring this vision to life, Hayd watched hundreds of hours of YouTube production tutorials and immersed himself in recording as a kid. While enrolled in a local Michigan community college, he continued to write and produce out of his bedroom. Fashioning a vivid and vibrant signature style, he received early support from influential curator 7Clouds and independent label and distributor Proximity. His 2019 debut single “Vacant Eyes” broke the million-stream mark followed by fan favorites “Superhero” at over 9.1 million Spotify streams and “Suffocate” at over 10 million Spotify streams. After snippets went viral, his 2020 single “Changes” has racked up over 123 million streams worldwide and set the stage for more. Since then, he has put out “Airplane Mode” and “Closure”, which approached 10 million views on TikTok pre-release. On his debut EP for Interscope Records, Hayd continues to open up with each subsequent chapter now.
