Hunter Hayes

In some cases, life happened. In other cases, they just didn't have the right team to help.

Country music's appeal truly crosses generations.

Got a birthday coming up? So do these country artists!

Don't expect to see Hayes pop on Tinder anytime soon.

With guesses ranging from actor Jonathon Taylor Thomas to Ben Platt, only judge Nicole Scherzinger figured it out.

He's opening up.

New music, finally!

It was 1998, and he worked to stump the panel and impress the live audience.

I had a very special and memorable evening yesterday. I got to hang out with Hunter Hayes and listen to new music with him. What a treat! I can't wait for you to hear what he has been up too. It will knock you out. Hunter is ready to blow things up in the next year with his new project.

Hunter Hayes dreamed of being a country star since he started to walk. He used to draw pictures of tour buses on his notebooks while other kids his age were drawing Batman. The stage is the place Hunter was born to be on. He first proved that on this date back in 1997 when he was just 5 years old.

It is hard to believe it has already been four years since Hunter Hayes first walked into the building here at K99. It was 2011 and this young 19 year old man came in and blew us away. You could tell immediately that this kid was a musical genius.

For Hunter Hayes, the movie theater shootings in Lafayette are personal. The "21" singer calls the area his home community as he grew up less than 10 miles away. Along with over a dozen other stars, Hayes reacted on Twitter.
