Ward HAYDEN & The OUTLIERS (formerly Girls Guns & Glory) formed as a
way to break from the music so commonly found on popular radio
airwaves. HAYDEN’s foray into country music and early rock ‘n’
roll began with a fateful borrowing of a few of his mother’s
cassettes. When asked, HAYDEN REMARKS, “I was doing these long
drives and there was nothing appealing to me on the radio. I was
twenty years old at the time and had been through my first experiences
with heartbreak and loss. When I put some of these cassettes on the
player in my Oldsmobile Delta Eighty-Eight, all I could think was,
“this is everything I’ve been searching for.” It took a few
years after that to get the band up and running, and now with a line
up featuring Paul Dilley on Upright/Electric Bass, Josh Kiggans on
Drums and Cody Nilsen on Lead Guitar/Pedal Steel the band has cut
it’s teeth the old fashioned way: on the road and on the stage.
Since their formation they’ve barnstormed far beyond their Boston
hometown, playing honky-tonks, beer joints and more recently concert
venues throughout the U.S and Europe. They’ve amassed a loyal legion
of fans along the way. The media have noticed too, including Rolling
Stone, who heralds them as a “modern-day Buddy Holly plus Dwight
Yoakam divided by the Mavericks.”
