Hailed as “the future star of country music” by Citytv and praised as a “prodigy whose star is definitely on the rise” by the Calgary Herald, the guitar-wielding, CCMA Award-winning Hailey Benedict got her start at age 14 when Keith Urban pulled her on stage for an impromptu performance in front of a sold-out arena, drawing international attention and instantly catapulting her into the spotlight.

2023 was a monumental year for Hailey, culminating in her victory at the SiriusXM Top of the Country competition. This summer, she fulfilled a lifelong dream by performing on the main stage at Big Valley Jamboree, her hometown festival where she has been a lifelong attendee. Benedict’s quarter-million-strong following on TikTok helped earn her a CCMA Award win for Interactive Artist of the Year, and she picked up another nomination at the 2024 awards in the Breakthrough Artist category.

Benedict introduces her next chapter with the single “Things My Mama Says,” her first release since signing with Big Loud Records/Local Hay.
