More quotes by Hunter Hayes
I write for myself. I don't write because I have a record coming out. I write because I want to. I need to.
Hunter Hayes
Yes, I did lock myself in my room for about two years and write some songs and things like that. But I don't feel like I missed out on a whole lot.
Hunter Hayes
Meeting Stevie Wonder was a massive, lifetime achievement for me. He's one of the sweetest people. I sense a kindred spirit in him, and I hope he'd say the same. Actually, he did.
Hunter Hayes
If I could make noise with anything, I was going to.
Hunter Hayes
A bass player has to think and play like a bass player. A drummer has to play and think like a drummer, and stay out of the way of the vocalist. The guitar player has to respect everybody else.
Hunter Hayes
All I knew when I moved to Nashville was that I wanted to make music in whatever shape and form I could.
Hunter Hayes
There's a lot of people I'd like to write with, like Keith Urban or even as far out as Stevie Wonder.
Hunter Hayes
I'm not a photographer, so I need all the help I can get when it comes to make a picture look cool.
Hunter Hayes
I could be myself. I'm very shy and awkward. I think the best thing is to embrace it.
Hunter Hayes
All my band members were old enough to be my dad. It was like this family vibe.
Hunter Hayes
I'm very shy and awkward. I think the best thing is to embrace it. It's about accepting who you are and what you want to become and knowing all that you've got to work with, whether it's good or bad. My music was the only place I could be me for the longest time.
Hunter Hayes
When I was in high school, I had binders with pictures of tour buses.
Hunter Hayes
My mom makes the best Cajun stuff. I'm a big gumbo guy. I've lost a lot of my Louisiana accent, so now when I say 'gumbo,' I feel like someone who's never said the word before.
Hunter Hayes
My first instrument was an accordion. Growing up in Louisiana, my grandmother gave me an accordion because of our Cajun heritage.
Hunter Hayes
I've always been shy, but I see that as a good thing because it kept me focused on music. When I was in seventh grade, I asked my parents for a mobile recording system for Christmas, and I got it. I didn't come out of my room for years after that. I'd get invited to the movies and I'd say, 'I'm gonna finish a couple of demos.'
Hunter Hayes
I don't have a girlfriend. I don't know if I have a type, but I really like girls who are driven. I really care about music, so I like it when a girl really cares about something too. Whatever it is they are into, I'll be their biggest fan.
Hunter Hayes
I used to think there was a scientific way to do things. Like a proper way to answer a question or that kind of stuff. It's like, there's not! There's not a method, there's not a science to it.
Hunter Hayes
I am, by nature, a guitar player... I learned all of these other instruments around that, and around the theory that I built learning the guitar.
Hunter Hayes
At 22, there’s a lot of trying to figure out love, which at the end of the day, I’ve realized I’ll never figure out, though the process of trying is fun.
Hunter Hayes
I have a string of competitiveness in me. It's really strange 'cause it's not something that I would even expect myself to have, but every now and then it kinda sneaks out, you know.
