Hayden Baker

At age 3, Katy, Texas native Hayden Baker received a gift. A small scale, Mark II acoustic guitar that was signed by the most successful country music duo of all time. Ronnie Dunn and Kix Brooks. Above Ronnie’s signature were the same words of advice that the great Chet Atkins had told him when he started out. “Hayden practice…..” Hayden did.

20 years later, HB signed a 1 year publishing deal with Ronnie and began his journey as a songwriter. He has since released 4 independent projects that have amassed over 2.5 million streams and he has spent the last 5 years touring all across Texas building his live show.

Hayden is a bona-fide guitar slinger. His chops have garnered recent offers to play guitar on the road for acts like Brooks & Dunn and Josh Turner , but just as Vince Gill said when he turned down an offer to play for Dire Straits, "If I don't believe in myself as an artist, nobody else will." HB believes in himself almost blindly, and he is determined to make his mark on Country Music as a singer/songwriter/guitarist.

Coming off the success of his 2023 EP Growing Pains , HB just released his first full length album since 2020. The album, titled "Barely Gettin’ By" is 14 tracks long, featuring an instrumental with Brad Paisley, a song co-writen with Ronnie Dunn, and 11 other songs that HB had a hand in writing. Hayden is currently recording and co-producing his fifth project, set to release this fall.
