4 Play is Hedda Layne's first full length album in 4 years. This music collects the best of Hedda's development of musical styles while maintaining a cohesive theme throughout. Departing from electronic and dance influences, Hedda incorporates new organic ingredients including a live brass section, multi-layered vocals, percussion and acoustic guitars. Hedda's music is a celebration of life and the experiences of living. Pop this album in your player and drive to these timeless themes as only Hedda can deliver them. Hedda Layne is a woman of many moods. And whether she's belting out soulful gospel sounds, high-energy dance tracks or moody electro-lounge numbers, when you hear Hedda, you better get ready to move. A singer of extraordinary range, Hedda's voice is perfectly matched by the work of her longtime collaborator (and husband) Troy Lee Warden. Troy is a gifted musician in his own right, but it is when he builds the soundscapes for his muse that the magic really happens. Hedda Layne's musical journey has produced legions of loyal followers - fans of her music and fanatics of her electrifying performances. For Hedda Layne live is more than a show, it's an experience. Whether in intimate clubs, throbbing dance bars or in front of an outdoor crowd of 100,000, like her Fourth of July performance with the Austin Symphony at Austin's Zilker Park, Hedda makes you feel like you're the only one there, that she is singing directly to you. You move to her beats, groove to her rhythms, captured by her stage presence. Hedda Layne fans have been anxiously awaiting the release of her newest effort, 4Play, a collection of tunes that are sure to be in heavy rotation on playlists everywhere.
