Losing a record deal is one of the toughest and most painful things that can happen to an artist. That feeling was felt immensely by American Canadian singer-songwriter Hayley Sales when it happened to her recently. She says, “My whole world was falling apart.” In the midst of all this, Sales moved to Los Angeles, where through a friend she was put in touch with acclaimed Hollywood actress Sharon Stone who offered to collaborate with her on a song. That song is the soulful “Never Before” which was released earlier this year and includes Sales’ soulful singing and piano playing as well as Stone’s poignant lyrics.
Over a Zoom interview with Rolling Stone India, Sales talks to us about working with the Basic Instinct star, how romance influenced the new track, her future plans, and more.
Before we get to the song, tell me about how the collaboration with Sharon Stone came about? Did you meet her or know her from before?
