ABOUT HAILY MAREA MUSIC
Hailey Marea is a soulful singer songwriter whose music blends elements from folk, neo-soul and jazz. Inspired by artists like Van Morrison, Alice Phoebe Lou, Olivia Dean, and Maggie Rogers, her sound carries a nostalgic warmth with lyrics that we can relate to today. Hailey Marea is originally from Cleveland, Ohio, however, she has always had a wanderlust spirit. After a nomadic chapter working abroad in Central America, and a cross-country move, she’s spent the past few years rooted in San Diego, becoming an active voice in the local music community. Hailey Marea’s songs are intimate and soft, yet dynamic and powerful, and her vocal melodies are the heart and soul of her creations.
This artist and environmental activist can be found playing all around San Diego California throughout most of the year, or you can catch her on her West Coast tour this August 2026. She will also be touring the UK in October, alongside her best friends, to kick off the release of her upcoming album “Nostalgia” set to release October 2nd. At her shows, you can expect a warm, kind presence, great storytelling and to walk away feeling connected.

“I’ve had the pleasure of co-writing with Hailey Marea as well as booking her for my monthly music series. In both cases I found her to be extremely kind, collaborative, and professional. She is a luminescent singer-songwriter and performer with a genuine message of love to share…very much the kind of artist whose warmth and vulnerability invites those around her (whether fellow performers or concert-goers) to find their shine as well.”

“I had the pleasure of interviewing Hailey Marea for my podcast highlighting San Diego-area songwriters & their music. Hailey also got to perform three of her original songs during our conversation. She was such a joy to talk with & exuded nothing but complete professionalism. Her talent & confidence was also unmatched. Hailey is also as friendly & easy going as anyone you’ll ever meet.”
