HAYES is actor and artist Thomas Hayes. Ever since childhood he has had a unique and intuitive connection to music, already part of a group of music producers and DJ’s before the start of his acting career, which took off with the massive success of Norwegian web teen drama series and worldwide phenomenon Skam. Rekindling his musical ambitions, Thomas Hayes allowed the HAYES concept to evolve through collaborations with songwriters, producers and artists he admires. August 2019 saw the release of his debut “Where I Belong” with Nico & Vinz. Mugisho collaboration “Now or Never” followed in November. The former, a song about finding your place in the world, and the latter, a song about taking risks - be they romantic or not - both reflect HAYES' attitude to life. "You have to seize opportunities, do your best, without worrying what others will think. A lot of people think they know who I am, what I stand for and what I should be doing. I can't live my life and make my choices based on the opinions of others, or fear of criticism. So, I just go for it!"
