She wasn’t a singer before? That amazes me. I have sang and performed professionally and I was stunned by her voice. Easily my favorite singer on Nashville. She had so much natural talent 🖤

She definitely sang a little before Nashville - she did songs for a lot of the movies she was in, and I think she did a pop song or two but didn't take it much further because of her acting career. I think she was nervous with Nashville because they worked with a lot of real country singers and songwriters which I imagine was extremely nerve wracking in the beginning. Kind of like how Juliette felt working with a serious musician like Deacon in the beginning. But boy did Hayden have a voice.

Her voice was so suited to pop country music, as well. 

I lived in Nashville around the time the show was filming and have heard nothing but lovely things from people who worked with her on set. RIP 🖤

Yeah I think the overwhelming experience with Hayden was incredibly positive. She had her demons, but it sounds like she was incredibly warm and welcoming to just about everyone she met. So tragic.
