Hedley was a Canadian pop rock band that originated in Abbotsford, British Columbia, originally formed in 2003. They were named after the unincorporated community of Hedley, British Columbia, a name chosen after members heard that it was for sale for $346,000.[3] After lead singer Jacob Hoggard placed third on the second season of Canadian Idol in 2004, the group signed with Universal Music Canada and released their self-titled debut studio album the following year. Hedley saw commercial success with their subsequent studio albums, including Famous Last Words (2007), The Show Must Go (2009), Storms (2011), Wild Life (2013), Hello (2015) and Cageless (2017).

Following the release of their seventh studio album Cageless (2017) and its accompanying tour, current members of Hedley faced accusations of sexual misconduct with young women over the course of their career.[4][5] After Hoggard faced additional accusations of sexual assault by two women, the group confirmed they would enter an indefinite hiatus.[6]

Hedley formed in 2003 in Abbotsford, British Columbia and originally consisted of Jacob Hoggard, Kevin Giesbrecht, Kevin Heeres, Ryan Federau, and Brandon McKay.[7][3] Hoggard got into Canadian Idol, where he made it to the top three.[8] Shortly after, the members decided to go their separate ways, but the band re-formed not long after, with Hoggard as the only original member. He recruited guitarist Dave Rosin, bassist Tommy Mac, and drummer Chris Crippin, all of whom previously teamed in the Vancouver band Everything After.[7] The band picked up attention at the Canadian Music Week 2005 media showcase and, soon after, signed with Universal Music Canada.[7] "Street Fight" was the first song they wrote together, which was part of their five-track demo they sent to the label.[9]

Their debut single "On My Own" was released on July 18, 2005, as the lead single from their debut self-titled studio album.[10] The song reached number one on the Canadian Singles Chart.[11] "Villain" was released as the second single from the album on July 26, 2005, and peaked at number 18 on the Canada Rock chart.[12] "Trip" was released as the third single from the album on October 4, 2005.[13] The song peaked at number 11 on the Canadian Singles Chart.[14] Brian Howes produced the track and won the group a Juno Award for Producer of the Year in 2007.[15] "321" was released as the fourth single on March 14, 2006, and reached number 21 on the Canada CHR/Top 30 chart.[16] "Gunnin'" was released on September 19, 2006, as the album's fifth single.[17] Garth Richardson produced "Gunnin'" as well as "Villain" and earned both songs a Juno nomination for Producer of the Year in 2006.[18] "Street Fight" was released in December 2006, as the sixth and final single from the album.

The album was certified platinum in Canada.[21]

On March 31, 2017, Hedley announced on their Facebook page that their drummer, Chris Crippin had left the band after 11 years.[79] Crippin later revealed that he had been fired by the group.[80] He also spoke about his time with the band, saying that Hoggard was "extremely rude" and was silenced when he tried to confront Hoggard about his behaviour.[81] On June 13, 2017, the group released the lead single, "Love Again" from their upcoming seventh studio.[82] The song peaked at number 50 on the Canadian Hot 100.[33] "Better Days" was released as the album's second single on August 18, 2017.[83] The song reached number 42 on the Canadian Hot 100.[33] Their seventh studio album Cageless, was released September 29, 2017.[84] The album debuted at number two on the Canadian Albums Chart and in its first week, sold 9,000 copies.[85]

On February 13, 2018, then current Hedley members were anonymously accused of sexual misconduct with young fans, primarily female, as young as 14 years of age. As a result, the Juno Awards and the band mutually agreed to cancel their scheduled performance.[4][5] The band posted a Facebook message, saying that the accusations were unsubstantiated and that while the band in the past "engaged in a lifestyle that incorporated certain rock and roll clichés [...] there was always a line that we would never cross".[86] On February 28, 2018, Hedley announced that they would take an indefinite hiatus following their tour, while Hoggard announced he would be taking an indefinite step back from his career.[87] On February 16, 2018, it was announced that Hedley was dropped by their management team effective immediately. Several radio stations and media organizations (including Corus Radio and CBC Music) removed and suspended all of their music due to these allegations.[88] On February 25, 2018, an Ottawa woman accused lead singer Jacob Hoggard of sexual assault after the pair met on Tinder and went to a hotel to have sex in November 2016.[6] On July 23, 2018, Hoggard was charged with one count of Sexual Interference and two counts of Sexual Assault Causing Bodily Harm.[89] On October 20, 2022, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison after being found guilty of sexually assaulting the Ottawa woman.[90] On August 16, 2024, Hoggard began serving his five year prison sentence following an appeal dismissed by the court.[91]
