Hayley Jensen

Hayley Jensen is an award-winning country artist who shot to fame as a top finalist on Australian Idol, and later made a ‘chair turning’ return to the small screen on The Voice where she was dubbed ‘the whole package’ by her coach, Kylie Minogue.

Her latest release and 4th studio album, ‘Breakin’ Hearts’, launched at the end of 2021, shot to the top of the charts to be the #1 ARIA Country Album, #1 Australian Country Album, #4 Australian Album All Genres & #25 Album Overall. It was also the #1 iTunes Country Album.

Off the back of a spectacular 2 years of chart topping success, Hayley was also nominated as a Finalist in the ‘2022 Golden Guitar Awards’ for ‘Female Artist of the Year’ and invited to perform as part of the official Australia Day LIVE Broadcast on ABC Television this year.

Jensen has achieved multiple #1’s and Top 10’s with the singles preceding the new album’s release, including #1 iTunes Country & KIX Country radio single, Karma, added to 4 curated Apple Music playlists, including 'Today's Country' & 'New Music Daily'. Other singles include Just Gonna Party, Fireworks, and title track, Breakin’ Hearts, which was the #1 Australian song on the official country airplay charts. It was also added to Spotify's 'Fresh Country' playlist, was one of the Top 100 Songs at Canadian Country radio, and one of the most played songs on CBC Country on digital radio across North America. She has also released 2 duets to radio in Canada, ‘Really Shouldn’t Drink Around You’ with Dan Davidson, and ‘Flirtin’ with Manitoba based band, Petric. Flirtin’ was added to the Fresh Country Playlist and is having chart success on Billboard Canada.

“The creation of Breakin’ Hearts was one of the most hands-on and enjoyable creative experiences of my life,” says Hayley. “It was a true labour of love, conceived during a period of global uncertainty and isolation. The production process spanned two continents, three countries, multiple time zones and pushed technology to its limits. Every story told through these songs is charged with emotion and grit - just like me.”

Touring extensively, Jensen has graced festival stages across Australia & abroad, including the ‘2018 Buckle & Boots Country Festival’ in the UK, plus ‘Calgary Stampede’ and ‘Dauphin's CountryFest’ in Canada in 2019.

Jensen kicked off 2022 with a bang, hitting the road with her band to launch the ‘Breakin’ Hearts’ Album with a massive tour of full house shows across QLD, NSW, ACT & VIC.
After two decades in the industry, Hayley is at an all-time high and has fortified her place as a leading act in the Australian music landscape and continues to make headway Internationally. What hasn’t changed through the years though, is her powerhouse vocals, authentic songwriting, and down to earth nature.
