Folklore Sessions Presents; Shaina Hayes+ SupportMarch 2nd | The Folklore Rooms£12.50adv | 18+ Shaina Hayes is a Canadian singer-songwriter whose music blends folk-pop clarity with alt-country warmth and a deep attention to emotional detail. Known for her graceful vocals, thoughtful lyricism, and quietly magnetic presence, she has emerged as a distinctive voice in contemporary indie folk. Hayes released her debut album to coax a waltz in 2022, followed by Kindergarten Heart in 2024. Both records introduced her intimate songwriting and earned her a continuously growing audience, leading to tours and opening slots for artists such as The War on Drugs, The Barr Brothers, and Elisapie. Her third album, Take the Case of a Rose , is due out November 13th, 2026. Alongside her musical career, Hayes continues to operate a vegetable farm in the tiny rural hometown where she grew up. The land remains a grounding force in her life, shaping her sense of rhythm, patience, and presence. That dual existence - touring musician and hands-on grower - informs the clarity and steadiness that run through her songs
