Hometown hero Hayley Reardon releases new album

Marblehead native and folk pop singer-songwriter Hayley Reardon just released her newest album, “Live at Starseed Studios,” recorded during a concert in Essex last summer.

Reardon partnered on the project with Barcelona’s Pau Figueres on flamenco guitar and Arnau Figueres on acoustic bass. The August concert was called, “Folk Meets Flamenco.” The album features 13 live tracks.

“Playing with Pau and Arnau is a great joy for me, and I’ve wanted for a long time to capture these special trio arrangements,” Reardon said. “It was a gift to get to do just that in a beautiful space filled with dear ones. These unique and intimate performances felt like a chance to take the musical magic and friendship I found during my time in Spain and bring it home to New England, another corner of the world that is so dear to me.”

Over the next month, Reardon will play a series of concerts in New York City and across New England with Catalan singer/songwriter Judit Neddermann. She’ll be playing at Club Passim in Cambridge on March 10.

Reardon started playing music at 15 and has spent much of the past decade writing, recording and performing music around the world. She spent three years based in Nashville, did a six-month artist-in-residency stay in Dachau, Germany, and then moved to Barcelona. She’s been back in the U.S. for about a year and lives in Gloucester.

Her songs have been featured on several Spotify editorial playlists and Apple Music playlists, with more than seven million streams on Apple Music alone.
