Background and development
Oliver is her third EP release. In late 2008, Hayes confirmed on her MySpace page she intended on releasing an EP to coincide with her December 2008 live dates in Ireland. Due to production issues the release was delayed and a new date was confirmed on 22 February 2009 as 9 March 2009. Hayes later confirmed on 9 March 2009 the release was delayed even further. It would later appear on iTunes on 13 March 2009.[1]
"November" was a track previously performed on Other Voices on RTÉ Television[2] and "Oliver" appeared on her setlist from May 2008. On 9 March 2009 'Ghost' was made available on her MySpace page as a preview to the EP.
