SUMMARY:Hunter Hayes: The Evergreen Tour @ Taft Theatre
DESCRIPTION:HUNTER HAYES ANNOUNCES NEW RECORD\nWITH ACCOMPANYING TOUR \n \nTAFT THEATRE \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 17 \nTickets On Sale Friday\, December 12 at 10am \nCincinnati\, OH (12/4/25) – Today\, 5x GRAMMY® nominated and PLATINUM-selling\, multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter\, Hunter Hayes announced his new album\, Evergreen\, releasing March 6th\, 2026. In addition to the forthcoming album\, Hayes also announced his 2026 headlining Evergreen Tour\, which will kick off on March 25th in Hopewell\, VA and stop by Cincinnati\, OH for a performance at Taft Theatre on Friday\, April 17. Franklin Jonas & The Byzantines will support as special guests for the Cincinnati performance. \nTickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10am on Friday\, December 12 at Ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at The Taft Theatre box office during normal business hours. \nThis new project features pop\, country\, R&B\, and indie rock-infused elements while exploring themes of growth\, connection\, and joy. Recorded with Alex Flagstad\, Evergreen captures the full scope of Hayes’ creativity – songs that are as emotionally rich as they are musically daring. From the buoyant optimism of “Around the Sun\,” to the playful vulnerability of “Every Piece\,” and the infectious tension of “Wait\,” these recent releases reveal Hayes as a songwriter in constant evolution\, whose heart-forward storytelling continues to resonate across generations. \nOf the record\, Hayes says\, “Evergreen started as a series of letters from my future self. In some ways a prayer\, and in some ways manifestation. I wanted to make a project from the future. It’s full of hope\, optimism\, light and love. It’s an escape from reality as well as a new way to appreciate the good things in our everyday life\, and how every experience shapes us to better and brighter versions of ourselves as we create a better version of our future.” \nA warm\, cinematic statement on growth\, renewal and self-discovery\, Evergreen blends hope\, authenticity\, and emotional clarity into a collection that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. The album examines the core value that love\, presence\, and compassion begin with the self. Across its songs\, Hayes questions long-held beliefs about performance\, worthiness\, love\, and masculinity\, embracing a definition of strength that is soft and evolving. Guided by his motto\, “Be good to yourself and the world around you\,” Evergreen showcases Hayes at his most fully expressive artistic chapter yet. \nABOUT HUNTYER HAYES \nGRAMMY®-nominated\, multi-instrumentalist and PLATINUM-selling artist\, Hunter Hayes is an embodiment of a musician that embraces evolution and redefines boundaries.
