Background and development

Oliver is her third EP release. In late 2008, Hayes confirmed on her MySpace page that she intended to release 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 announced on 22 February 2009 as 9 March 2009. She later confirmed on 9 March 2009 that the release would be delayed even further. It appeared 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.

Music video

On 26 April 2009, Hayes announced on her Twitter page that filming had begun for the music video for "Oliver" the EP.[3] The video was premiered on 2 June 2009.

CD release

It was confirmed by Hayes on 27 October 2011 that the Oliver EP would be available as a free CD on the re-released edition of Let It Break in 2012. The first 1,000 albums of Let It Break would have the EP.
