Country artist Jaclyn Hayden has held a passion for music since childhood. Growing up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, she spent her youth singing and listening to hymns, southern gospel, and country music. Jaclyn later earned a bachelor’s degree in Artist Development and Songwriting from Liberty University to pursue her dream of becoming a full-time artist.

​

Looking to expand her horizons, Jaclyn made the leap from her small hometown of Vinton, Virginia, to Orlando, Florida, where she won a highly competitive role as a cast performer for the Walt Disney World Company. Her time at Disney provided invaluable show business experience, prompting her to eventually combine those skills with her personal career goals. Stepping out in faith, she transitioned to a full-time music career and established her own band in 2021.

​

Since then, Jaclyn has built an impressive reputation. She and her band have become highly requested favorites at Blake Shelton’s Ole Red Orlando, and she even completed a six-month residency at Ole Red in Las Vegas, where she performed right before Blake Shelton took the stage for the venue's grand opening. Known for delivering dynamic, family-friendly shows, Jaclyn is frequently booked well in advance at major venues throughout Central Florida, including the Margaritaville Resort and Disney Springs. In addition, Jaclyn and her band will be making their Epcot debut this fall at Disney’s Eat to the Beat concert series.

​

Beyond her live performances, Jaclyn is continuously expanding her creative resume. She has traveled to Nashville frequently over the years to write songs that detail different seasons of life, showcasing her talents at top-tier, Nashville-based venues like Luke Bryan’s, Miranda Lambert’s, and Lainey Wilson’s establishments.

​

Her recorded music has also gained steady momentum. In 2021, Jaclyn co-wrote and released her debut single, “Without You,” followed by two more singles in 2024, “All Over Again” and “Maybe.” With much anticipation, she is currently preparing to release her first full-length album. Recently, after signing with Vere music, Jaclyn released her latest single, “Man Oh Man,” which landed on Spotify’s editorial “All New Country” playlist for new country music on July 10th, 2026.
