A word from Hayley...
The dream to one day play a Harp became a reality in my early teens, when I attended a meditation circle led by a gentleman playing Harp. Ah the sounds! So mystical, enchanting, mesmerising, heavenly! He guided us gently into deep peace, & after experiencing the subtle yet powerful healing vibrations of the Harpfor myself, I knew I also wanted to get my hands on those strings, & weave the magic of this most ancient instrument throughout the world.
Playing the Harp felt like a remembering, & very soon my own intuitive music emerged. Whether playing for a formal occasion, an audience or specific cause, I play with the wish that my music touches the heart of all who hear, & in a world of such unrest, allowing people to feel the grace and beauty in their own being: to literally lighten up!
My albums "Inviting Grace" & "Divine Child" embody these intentions, I do hope you enjoy the music!
With love & respect,
Hayley Erin

Listener Testimonial for Hayley's CD 'Divine Child'
Dear Hayley,
I have been listening to your CD's for several months now and wanted to let you know how powerful they are. I play Divine Child for my 2-year old daughter every night at bedtime. The music is sweet and relaxing. She calms down as she listens to it, and puts herself to sleep. But something much more important is happening.
As a long time student of music and meditation, I can feel how the music coaxes a state of gentle, deep meditative rest. I don't know how you've done it, but you created a CD that can lead us into a wonderful state of peace. Thank You.
I have used Inviting Grace CD in both my clinical practice and in the healing classes I teach around the world. This CD instantly creates a sense of movement and ease. People settle into their bodies and bring their focus inside where it can do the most good. The music is like a bath in soothing and inspiring tones. Thank you for the love you have put into your music.
Hayley, your music is a great gift. Keep it up! I'm grateful to you every time I hear it. With love,
- Michael Trembath, Samvahan Vibrational Therapist, SYD
