anticipated debut album EXPECTATIONS. "Curious"
is available now via all digital music retailers and streaming
services. Download/Stream HERE.
"I'm so excited to launch my debut album with "Curious," says
Kiyoko. "This song is all about self-respect and knowing when
to walk away when someone you care about is playing games. The
treatment I came up with for the video helps gets that point
across in a fun and tongue-in-cheek way. I hope people connect
with it and can't wait for everyone to see it!"

The
release of "Curious," which will immediately ship to Pop and
Hot AC radio formats nationwide, officially ushers in what's
bound to be another stellar year for the rising pop artist.
Billboard already cited "high expectations," for Kiyoko writing,
"At this point, Hayley Kiyoko's ascension to Billboard
Hot 100 domination seems inevitable... the sapphic starlet is
poised to have a promising debut with her debut solo album."
Towards the end of 2017, Hayley unveiled her catchy track "Feelings"
along with the self-directed music video which BuzzFeed
instantly praised for its "unapologetic, real, and honest representation."
Watch the visual, which has gone on to amass nearly 6 million
views on YouTube and captures all of the "feelings" associated
with a budding romance, HERE.
In the fall of 2016, the multi-talented singer, songwriter,
director and actress, featured as one of Rolling Stone's
"10 New Artists You Need To Know," released her major-label
debut EP CITRINE, which reached the top 5 on Billboard's
"Heatseekers" chart and included the acclaimed singles and self-directed
companion visuals, "One
Bad Night" and "Gravel
To Tempo." Hayley went on to celebrate CITRINE by
launching the first leg of her nationwide "One Bad Night Tour."
The completely sold-out headline tour saw Hayley performing
her new music for her passionate and devoted fans in multiple
cities throughout the US. According to Baeble, "Hayley
Kiyoko's music acts as a safe space for the LGBTQ community."
Last spring, just before embarking upon the second leg of her
"One Bad Night Tour," which included a stop at NYC's famed Bowery
Ballroom in addition to performances down in Austin at SXSW,
Hayley unleashed another self-directed video for her song "Sleepover,"
which arrived amidst widespread media attention from outlets
such as Pop Crush, which highly praised the single as
"a poignant piece of pro-LGBTQ art... set against a hazy, humid
electronic soundscape of drowsy mid-tempo beats and flickering
guitar twinkles." To date, Hayley's self-directed music videos
have collectively amassed over 140 million views on YouTube.
This spring, Hayley will herald the release of her debut full-length
with performances at Indio, CA's Coachella Valley Music & Arts
Festival, set for Sunday, April 15th and Sunday, April 22nd.
