Kayla Von Der Heide is an emerging voice in contemporary folk music, known for her haunting melodies and poetically introspective lyrics. Her journey began in the heart of a small mining town, where she drew inspiration from the community’s enduring spirit and the stark beauty of the surrounding landscape. These elements culminated in her breakthrough single "Mining Town," which captured the essence of her roots and resonated with audiences looking for authenticity in songwriting.

Her subsequent releases, including the reflective "Where It Feels Like Home" and "Marigold," continued to build upon her reputation as a storyteller—a craft honed further in the intimate settings captured in her "The Rise (Live Album)." Each song is a new chapter in her exploration of human emotion and connection, with "Wandering Heart" and "These Four Walls" revealing the artist’s deep-seated affinity with wanderlust and sanctuary. Von Der Heide’s most recent work, "Time Can Be So Cruel," showcases her maturation as an artist who can traverse the delicate balance between timeless folk sensibilities and modern songwriting finesse. Through each release, Kayla Von Der Heide invites listeners to embark on a journey of self-discovery and reflection, a hallmark of her growing legacy within the tapestry of folk music.
