Mallorie Geneice Haley hails from Winner, South Dakota. Knowing she wanted to be a singer at the tender age of three, she embarked on her career much later at the age of 5, according to her mom, singing the national anthem at a rodeo in South Dakota. Since then she has traveled frequently to sing at the NFR in Las Vegas, as well as the Porterfield Country Music Festival in Wisconsin. She sang the National Anthem at the Texas Rangers baseball games, and performed several times at the well known Johnnie High Music Review in Arlington, Texas and numerous music festivals throughout the Midwest. Mallorie has opened shows for Kenny Rogers, George Jones, Crystal Gayle, Chris Ledoux, Linda Davis, Kenny Chesney, Montgomery Gentry, Pam Tillis, Trace Adkins, Dierks Bentley…the list goes on. She has also won several singing contests, most notably Ed McMahons internet star search. In her later teen years, Mallorie would travel to Nashville to write with several notable writers such as Brett and Brad Warren, Michael Heeney and Marla Goodman-Cannon. Soon after her much anticipated high school graduation, Mallorie made the big move to Nashville in June of 2007 to pursue a singing career. With the continued help of music biz friends Steve Misamore, Eric Paslay, Paul Hart, Jason Gantt, Jeremy Cottrell and others, Mallorie has gained an impressive start as a young, up and coming singer/songwriter in Nashville. She’s already attracted the attention of several major labels as well as publishers and promises to be one of the bright spots in the Nashville country music scene.
