The man behind the stories
Bishop Hayes is North Georgia country storytelling for people who believe the most important things in life happen quietly — on a porch, on a horse, in a church, in a truck cab, and in the spaces between the words a father and son never quite say out loud.
Every song is a scene. Every album is a chapter. The catalog is a life — Ray and Beth, Peggy, Spirit and Joe, the Chevelle, the ridge trail, and the red clay roads between Dahlonega and Lake Lanier.
How these songs are made
Bishop Hayes is a character-driven country storytelling project written and produced by Michael Linton. The songs are created with the help of AI music tools, and the character, his family, and his world are fictional — built from real North Georgia places and the kind of people who live there.
