MySpace Artist Of The Week: Hali Hicks

When I first visited Hali Hicks’ MySpace I was blown away by the song she has set on auto play, Rain On A Tin Roof. At 16 her voice is mature beyond her age, you can almost feel the heartbreak that she sings about in her songs. While I wasn’t as blown away with her other two songs they still exhibit her undeniable talent. Upside is a term gaining a lot of popularity among sports scouts searching for talent at the collegiate level, that being said, Hali Hicks has tremendous upside and a lot of potential to make it big one day.

Hali Hicks was born on April 13, 1990, in Rome, Ga. She grew up in Cedartown, GA and Carrollton, GA. She is a 16 year old country girl, who loves nothing more than playing, writing, singing and performing.

Hali is a typical teenager who likes hanging out with her friends and going muddin on four-wheelers.

Halis career started early. At the age of 7, she was performing at churches around her hometown(s) and local talent shows and Private Events throughout Atlanta. In September of 2000, while performing at a talent contest in Nashville, TN Hali fell in love with Music City. Also, in September of 2002, she performed with Jerry Lee Lewis band at Jerrys birthday bash and convention in Memphis, TN. She has performed yearly at the Georgia Mountain State Fair in Hiawassee, GA and many other venues throughout Georgia, and Alabama. Her most recent accomplishments were: in September 2005, she cut her very first demo containing all original songs, written and composed by her, two of which you can hear on her music Myspace: Missin You and I Love You.
