Background and development edit
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.
