What a creative and inspiring journey it has been for Hayley Kiyoko<\/a><\/strong> since she first made a seismic impact in 2015 with the now-iconic anthem \u201cGirls Like Girls<\/a>\u201c<\/strong>. More than just a breakout hit, the track became a cultural touchstone. A bold and empowering celebration of queer love, self-acceptance, and visibility that resonated deeply with fans around the globe.<\/p>\n Fast-forward to 2026, and Hayley\u2019s beloved story is stepping onto an even bigger stage. \u201cGirls Like Girls\u201d<\/strong>, the forthcoming film from Focus Features<\/strong>, arrives in cinemas on June 19th and marks Hayley\u2019s directorial debut. Based on both her hit single and New York Times<\/strong> bestselling novel, the film has been a decade-long labour of love for the multi-hyphenate artist. Set during one unforgettable sun-soaked summer, the coming-of-age story follows Coley<\/strong>, a new girl in town navigating first love and discovering the courage to fully embrace herself.<\/p>\n Naturally, a project this heartfelt deserves a soundtrack equally rich in emotion and identity. Hayley has assembled an impressive lineup of LGBTQ+ voices and allies. These include Young Miko, Tegan and Sara, Chelsea Cutler, Gigi Perez, Joy Oladokun, August Ponthier<\/strong>, and Snow Wife<\/strong>. Leading the charge is the newly released collaboration \u201cRed Bikini\u201d <\/strong>featuring Snow Wife<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
