After being named one of People's Emerging Artists to Watch in 2023, Hayes Warner had a very big year, and we're anticipating even bigger things from the artist as we move through 2024.

Hayes is best known for her hit songs "Breadcrumbs," "Dead to Me" and "SHUT UP," and also recently teamed up with rap sensation Billy B on International Women's Day for an updated take on the No Doubt classic, "Just a Girl."  With her energetic and fun pop-punk sound and relatable lyrics with edge, it's no surprise she's been turning heads,  and some very big things are on the way, as she'll be releasing her debut EP this summer before taking the stage at Lollapalooza.
