Hunter Hayes has unveiled "Evergreen," his first full-length album in three years. This latest project marks his most stylistically adventurous work to date, weaving together country and pop with elements of indie rock, R&B, and folk.
Recorded with co-producer Alex Flagstad, "Evergreen" was inspired by notes Hayes wrote to himself from a future version of who he aspired to become. He describes the album as full of hope, optimism, and light, offering an escape and a new appreciation for everyday life.
The five-time Grammy nominee kicks off his "Evergreen Tour" on March 25, 2026, in Hopewell, VA. The tour will span over 20 cities across North America, including stops in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, and Nashville.
With "Evergreen," Hayes delves into themes of renewal, self-discovery, compassion, and vulnerability, questioning past narratives and embracing a more expansive version of himself. This evolution is reflected in his songwriting, which is described as more assured and emotionally clear than ever before. Tickets for the tour are currently on sale.
