Taylor Hayes

“Bread and water can so easily become toast and tea.” Taylor Hayes is a 22-year-old songwriter and lyricist originally from Mission Viejo, California. Now making headway in the SoCal music scene as a songwriter and vocalist, Taylor has a consistent urge to learn, grow, and evolve as a musician. With musical influences spanning 70s ballads, classic rock, and musical theater, her writing blends clever, catchy melodies with emotionally rich and poetic storytelling. 

Raised in a music-loving family, Taylor has spent years honing her voice—both literally and creatively. From 10 years of classical choral training, multiple musical theater and commercial band performances, and a soloist debut with Blizzard Entertainment’s Video Games Live tour in China, her diverse musical experience fuels her unique lyrical perspective and vocal abilities. 

While she does plan to release her own original music, Taylor also has a deep passion for crafting songs for other artists. Her work often explores the feminine experience, deep relationships, and the beauty in vulnerability, all wrapped in a vintage-inspired, shabby chic aesthetic. She’s equally at home writing heartfelt folk melodies, dreamy indie-pop hooks, and introspective alt tracks for sync or collaboration. Above all else, Taylor Hayes can write a hit original hook for any of your songwriting needs, guaranteed.

With a sharp eye for branding and a strong online presence (refined through running a successful Instagram business with 115K+ followers @milkbunslime / lifestyle TikTok with 15k followers @taylorbellehayes), Taylor brings more than songwriting to the table—she offers vision, voice, and a sense of timelessness in every piece of art she creates.
