Native to Greensboro, NC, but currently settled in Denver, CO, Mike Hayes has gravitated towards and innate music influence since an early age. From playing a range of instruments to writing music, production instinctively came next in his individual progression, leading to emergence of the HEYZ project. Promptly garnering interest in his palatable dance floor techno from tap labels such as deadmau5's mau5trap following his introduction to the electronic scene in 2018, HEYZ eventually began leanining into a  more bass-heavy approach.
