Hi I’m Jaclyn Hayden! I grew up in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains of Vinton, Virginia. My love for music started with southern gospel at a young age. I grew up singing in churches and later graduated from Liberty University where I studied Artist Development and Songwriting. I moved to Orlando, Florida in 2016 where I have performed at Walt Disney World for the last 5 years. In 2020 I took some time to go to Nashville where I co-wrote my first single “Without You” with Lonestar’s Dean Sams. I’m thankful for the opportunities the Lord has given me to write, and perform. You can also find me playing shows with local band “Mighty Swell” around the Orlando area!
