About Hunter Hayes

Multiple GRAMMY nominated artist, Hunter Hayes, is a multi-talented performer, musician, producer, and writer who was nominated for six Academy of Country Music Awards, including nods for his work as artist, songwriter, and producer.

His critically acclaimed self-titled album has already garnered two No. 1 singles, selling almost five million singles to date while the album itself nears platinum certification.

About Ashley Monroe

Ashley Monroe released her critically-acclaimed album Like A Rose, co-produced by 20-time GRAMMY award-winner Vince Gill and Justin Niebank, earlier this year. Monroe co-wrote the entire album working with the legendary Hall of Fame songwriter Guy Clark as well as many of Nashville's A-list songwriters.

Creating music for more than half of her life – attracting kudos along the way from some of music’s finest contemporaries such as Dolly Parton and Jack White – her new, full-length album release serves both to fill in the back-story and impart to us who she is today.

At times her songs are dead serious, at others utterly hilarious, but always Monroe is an original with a compelling story to share.  Named one of People’s “10 Best Albums (so far)” along with being called “the first great album of the year,” by Washington Post, Monroe’s Like A Rose also received stunning 4 out of 4 star reviews from USA Today and Rolling Stone.

CARRIE UNDERWOOD ANNOUNCES “THE BLOWN AWAY TOUR”

North American Arena Tour Kicks Off In September

London Show Sells Out in 90 Minutes – More International Shows To Be Announced Soon

Superstar Carrie Underwood announced this morning, during her appearance on Good Morning America to promote her new album, Blown Away, in stores today, that she will launch a headline North American arena tour this fall, “The Blown Away Tour.” The tour will also include an international run of shows this summer sponsored by Olay, including her first-ever United Kingdom concert taking place at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London on June 21, which sold-out in 90 minutes.  Additional international concert dates will be announced soon.

The North American tour dates will be presented and hydrated by vitaminwater®, sponsored by Olay, and promoted by AEG Live. Special guest Hunter Hayes will open. Tickets will be available for “The Blown Away Tour” beginning Friday, May 11. Please go to www.carrieunderwood.fm for additional on sale information.

“I can’t wait to get back out on the road and perform new music from my new album for my fans,” says Carrie.  “We have a lot of exciting things planned!”

Carrie is donating $1 from each ticket sold on the North American leg of “The Blown Away Tour” to support Red Cross disaster relief.  Every year, the American Red Cross prepares for and responds to nearly 70,000 disasters across the United States.  This donation will help the Red Cross provide shelter, food, and emotional support for those in need after a disaster.  Proceeds from her Canadian concerts will be donated to the Canadian Red Cross.

Carrie’s two previous headline tours, 2008’s “Carnival Ride Tour” and 2010’s “Play On Tour,” performed for a combined total of nearly 250 shows with 2.2 million fans in attendance, and she wrapped both years as the top-ranked female country touring artist.

Since releasing Some Hearts in 2005, Underwood has sold more than 14 million albums with Some Hearts, 2007’s Carnival Ride, and 2009’s Play On.  She’s amassed 14 No. 1 singles, six of which she co-wrote, and became the first country artist in history and the only American Idol winner ever to achieve 10 No. 1 singles from their first two albums.  Underwood currently leads the nominations for the upcoming CMT Music Awards with five. She is a five-time Grammy winner, a two-time Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, a three-time Country Music Association and ACM Female Vocalist winner, and a proud member of the Grand Ole Opry.

Hunter Hayes, the multi-talented writer, musician, producer, and performer, is the only country artist to play every instrument, write/co-write every song, and co-produce his critically acclaimed self-titled debut album.  As the 2012 ACM New Artist of the Year nominee, Hunter has been touring and performing live for decades, most recently selling out venues across the US and Canada on his MOST WANTED headline tour.  This multi-instrumentalist continues to garner praise from fans and critics alike as he made his world-premiere national television debut on CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman  and also performed with The Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and on Good Morning America.  The Louisiana native has shared the stage with Taylor Swift, Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban, Lady Antebellum, Trace Adkins, Brad Paisley, and Hank Williams, Jr. to name a few. His current Top 40 hit "Wanted" is quickly climbing the radio charts and holds the unprecedented #1 slot for three weeks in a row on GAC's Top 20 Countdown.  For more information on Hunter Hayes, please visit www.HunterHayes.com.
