Hunter Hayes Earns Gold; Plans Tour and TV Stops

Hunter Hayes has earned his first Gold certification from the RIAA for his current single, “Wanted.”

“Wanted” is the second single off Hayes’ Atlantic Records self-titled debut album. His first single, “Storm Warning” is nearing Gold certification as well. To date, Hayes has sold a combined total of over one million digital singles.

Hayes is so far the only country artist to play every instrument, write/co-write every song, and co-produce his debut album. He has been performing across the US and Canada on his Most Wanted headlining tour and recently announced plans to join Carrie Underwood this Fall on her 2012 Blown Away tour.

Hayes is scheduled to perform “Wanted” on CBS’ The Talk, July 24 at 1  pm CT. He recently made his national television debut on CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman and also performed on Good Morning America as well as with The Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
