Lachie Hayes is a rising alt-country artist from the deep south of Aotearoa, known for his raw storytelling, genre-blurring sound, and strong sense of place.

His debut album Subsatellite, produced by Delaney Davidson, fuses blues, country and rock. Lachie’s sound is shaped by everyday moments, old Westerns, and the poetic grit of artists like Bob Dylan, Robert Johnson, and Muddy Waters.
