Hunter Hayes
If I could make noise with anything, I was going to.

I am grateful I got the chance to meet Stevie Wonder! He's like royalty to me and is one of my biggest inspirations.
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
To be the name on somebody's shirt that they've made themselves in preparation for one of your shows - it doesn't get much cooler than that.
Hunter Hayes
Anyone who tells you they're not nervous playing on the CMAs stage, I'm afraid they're not telling you the whole story.

There's so much more to life than what you're feeling now
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'm a nerd. Total geek. I never went to homecoming or prom or anything.
Hunter Hayes
I started writing when I was around 6. I say 'writing,' but it was really just making up stuff! I started writing and doing my own thing. I didn't really know what a demo was or anything like that, so I started getting interested in studio gear and started learning about one instrument at a time. My first instrument was an accordion.
Hunter Hayes
I don't believe in making a record and rushing it.
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
There is a bit of a movement as far as younger people in country music. That is cool because people are saying things like, 'I didn't listen to country music until so-and-so came along.' And I'm like, 'Yeah! Now you know why I love it.
Hunter Hayes
The rule of songwriting: say what you want to say, say it again, say it a different way, then say it again.
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
All my band members were old enough to be my dad. It was like this family vibe.
Hunter Hayes
Dream as big as you want because they come true everyday
Hunter Hayes
I'm naturally shy, so the social media thing is new to me. I haven't really figured out how my voice sounds on social media, you know? I don't want to tweet everyday just for the sake of tweeting. I want to make sure whatever I do there is honest. Social media can very quickly get fake, and I don't want to be that guy.
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.
