Heather Myles (born 1963) is a country singer. Her honky tonk singing is in the Bakersfield sound-style and has been likened by many to that of Dwight Yoakam. She has had her songs featured in a major feature film and has performed with some of the country greats. Building a dedicated following of fans in the US and Europe, Heather seens to have succeeded in spite of disdain from Nashville and the major record labels. "You Will Love Me One Day" features on the film Transamerica

She was born in Riverside, California, where her parents bred and trained horses for racing.

Myles has released five albums as of May 2007 - including two on HighTone Records, and two on Rounder. While not a Top-40 country star in the contemporary Nashville mode, she has had considerable influence on the larger country-western music sphere due to her stubborn adherence to traditional country music. Through near-constant touring in the 1990s and early 2000s, she has built up a small but loyal following that appreciates her throw-back style and refusal to compromise her vision of what country music should be.
