A seventeen year old who can sing and play with the best, and does. With accomplishments claimed only by a seasoned entertainer, Hunter Hayes mesmerizes U.S. presidents, Congress and CNN with his remarkable talent. Currently he plays over 12 instruments, continually adding to his musical repertoire. As a young child he appeared on network television shows, wowing audiences with his gifted ability to play diatonic accordion and to sing not only in English, but also in Cajun French -- the traditional instrument & language of his heritage. He appears in movies (THE APOSTLE, ALL THE KING’S MEN, MY DOG SKIP) and enjoys acting, but music is truly his passion. An incredibly promising songwriter, his ability to communicate with the public through both lyric and melody is astounding for someone his age. Since the recording of his first project at age four, Hunter contributes original songs to all of his albums. Ever the consummate live performer, he commands the stage, all while overseeing production and his band of talented musicians. Hunter Hayes is a young man who writes about life and love; who performs with the grace of someone twice his age; and who, most importantly, is spiritually grounded with the American values of God, family and country. *For more information on Hunter Hayes, contact Cyndi Forman at UMPG Nashville.
