Haley Small

18 year old Haley Small is an aspiring R&B-Pop singer/ songwriter with big talent and big dreams. Anxiously striving to make her mark in the music industry, she has been writing, performing, collaborating, recording and doing anything and everything else to try and expand her horizons. Haley’s talent was first widely recognized when she sang the national anthems for a Blue Jay’s game at the Sky Dome at 10 years old. From then on, from ages 10 to 13, she continued to perform wherever she could to gain experience and continue to be recognized. Such places included Queen’s Park’s Jerk and Jazz Festival, the Living Arts Centre, and other charity events and talent showcases. At this time Haley was also being trained vocally and in piano. When she was 12 years old she began some studio work with Toronto’s well-known Jazz artist, Eddie Bullen, who acted as a musical mentor for her for many years as she got experience writing and recording music. At 14 years old, after continuing to train and work with people on and off stage, she stumbled upon a member of the Epydemix production team who was impressed with her talent and got her acquainted with 2012 Management. From then on a team was established to begin working on an album that would showcase Haley and the music they created at the EMI Publishing Studio in Toronto. The team consists of 2012 Management, Epydemix Productions, and Kuya Productions, along side the help of some other significant contributors. Through working with her team, Haley has grown tremendously as a vocalist, writer, pianist, dancer, and has learned the importance of being a well-rounded artist. An R&B girl at heart, Haley’s main inspirations are Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Lauryn Hill, Jennifer Hudson, Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Boys II Men, Rihanna, Neyo, Brandy, Christina Aguilera and Musiq Soulchild. Haley continues to collaborate, try new things, and learn from everything and everyone around her, with hopes successfully one day share her music with the world. At the moment, Haley is re-assessing herself as an artist with plans of recording some new music that expresses the music that she has loved since a child and continues to love today. She will be promoting a new image, new updated music, and continuing to perform and work diligently with Kuya Productions and the circle of musicians and industry participants that she has surrounded herself with to improve her career and herself as an artist.
