Airdrie's Hayley Isabel will see a dream come true this summer as she plays at one of Alberta's largest country music festivals.
Isabel was asked to play on the secondary stage this year at Country Thunder Alberta.
"Ed Harris runs the booking for Country Thunder, and I was at the Alberta Country Music Awards hanging out with my friends, and he asked if I wanted to play."
Isabel explained It was just so exciting when he asked.
"I didn't expect that at all. I was very excited and I still am to play."
This will be the first time Isabel has ever been to Country Thunder, and according to her, she has been trying to play at the festival for a few years now.
"I've been applying to play there since I was 10. I would say that I would love to be a part of this super fun festival. So now I get to, and I'm super excited."
She explained this will be the first time she has performed at a touring festival like Country Thunder.
"I would love to play on the main stage one day, but I think this is just a big, cool step towards that, and I think I am hoping I can make some good connections."
According to her, she will be playing on Friday, August 15, at 3:30 p.m.
Also, this summer she will be performing at the Calgary Stampede and the Lilac Festival.
Earlier this month, Isabel was featured on the Family Channel for her singing abilities.
