HAYLA encourages her gay fans to be 'unapologetically yourself' as Pride Month approaches

It's the year of HAYLA!

Dubbed the "voice of EDM" by her passionate fans, the singer is taking her career to the next level with a jam-packed schedule of performances at a slew of iconic festivals across the globe.

HAYLA's songs are not only super catchy and composed of incredibly danceable beats, but her powerful vocals always soar on every single she puts out.

The star has collaborated with the biggest names in EDM including John Summit, Kaskade, MEDUZA, and most recently, ILLENIUM, on the new track "In My Arms."

"It's amazing, honestly, and it's totally not lost on me! To be involved in so many records and also be a co-writer on them as well... it's been amazing to work with such incredible people," HAYLA tells PRIDE.

With so many hits under her belt, HAYLA is exclusively revealing the song that she considers to be her all-time favorite collaboration thus far.

"It probably has to be 'Escape' because that's where it all began! I do think that holds a special place in my heart. It changed my life completely! I think that song is always one that I'm going to look back on real fondly."

HAYLA's star is only on the rise as she gears up for the biggest summer of her life. The star just performed a surprise performance at EDC Las Vegas by crashing ILLENIUM and SLANDER's B2B set at Kinetic Field on Saturday night.

"The sharing of energy in that kind of room just feels like electricity! Being in those rooms and singing live like that was amazing. I would love to be able to do more and more shows!"

Her manifestations are coming true as she embarks on an exciting tour over the next few months. HAYLA will be performing at many notable festivals including WorldPride and Electric Forest this June.

"Especially this year, I just think that it's really important to be in a place of love, community, and support for one another. I think being in the LGBTQ+ spaces and being so accepted as I have been... it's totally not lost on me. I think it's so important to just spread the love."

Pride is more crucial than ever. Not only is the WorldPride Music Festival pulling out all the stops with an incredible LGBTQ+ lineup in Washington, D.C., but Electric Forest is also teaming up with Dreamland's Jake Resnicow to take over the festival's Sunday Pride celebration for the very first time.

"It's all about being unapologetically yourself! Keep on being you. There's only one of you. The most amazing thing we could all bring to the table in the world is to be completely yourself."
