The Louisiana native has garneredover2 billion on-demand global streams since the release of his debut album, along with six gold and platinum-certified singles. In addition to his legendary headlining shows, Hayes has also toured with superstars like Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, and has headlined sold-out shows across the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. With more than 50 award nominations and wins, including five GRAMMY© nominations, it's easy to see why-he plays every instrument on his records.

“It is staggering what you learn about the hunger issue – right next door in our own backyards. The statistics are absolutely unbelievable,” Hayes says. “I've always loved what music and charity organizations can do together,and proceeds from this concert can help make a big difference. It's something that we can be a part of to make this story a better one.”
“For us, this isn't just a concert, it's a lifeline for kids,” says Kara Fort, President & CEO of United Way of South Central Idaho. “We're thrilled to bring Hunter Hayes to the Magic Valley for the first time – and to rally our community to lift up the children who need us most.”
