Haley Heynderickx is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist known for her intimate vocal style and evocative storytelling through folk-inspired melodies. Emerging from the Portland, Oregon music scene, Heynderickx has carved out a niche for herself with her introspective lyrics and delicate guitar work that melds elements of folk, indie, and a touch of the surreal. Her 2018 debut album "I Need to Start a Garden” drew widespread critical acclaim, showcasing her ability to explore personal growth and existential musings with both wit and vulnerability. The single "Oom Sha La La" became a standout track for its catchy refrain and quirky, reflective honesty.

Amidst the steady stream of indie folk artists, Heynderickx stands out with her unique voice and poetic, sometimes whimsical songwriting. Her music often contemplates the intersection of the spiritual and mundane, as illustrated in tracks like "Untitled God Song" where she muses on a more approachable, humanized deity. With the release of projects like "Among Horses III," a collaboration with Spanish band Max García Conover that further solidifies her penchant for raw, stripped-down performances, Heynderickx continues to enchant listeners with her authenticity and imaginative musical landscape. Whether through the confessional tone of "Worth It" or the live expressions captured on "Unpeeled," her expanding discography includes the "Fish Eyes EP" and singles that cement her reputation as a captivating voice in the indie folk genre.
