While it's been almost a decade since Hunter Hayes' last significant radio hit ("21" in 2015), he's still recording and performing. To remind fans what he brings to the table, Hayes has a new three-song EP coming out September 20th called "Lost & Found." In his announcement on Instagram, Hayes says, "In the process of starting the next chapter of music I’ve enjoyed looking through ideas that have waited patiently for the right time to be brought back into focus. It was also a good time to return to the garden and check on things I planted a long time ago." The announcement was on Hayes' 33rd birthday; the EP consists of re-imagined Hayes songs including "In A Song," due out this Friday, "Still Fallin'" and a re-recording of his 2012 #1 hit "Somebody's Heartbreak."
Kelsea Ballerini has been fairly quiet this year, posting quite a few fashion photos on her socials but not much in the way of music. That's changing. A month ago, she informed fans that a new album was coming and released a new single at the same time. Now, she's announced that her album release party will, in fact, be a one-night-only concert in New York's Madison Square Garden. In an Instagram post, Kelsea explained "The whole time I was making this album, I was visualizing and dreamscaping ways to bring it to life for our live show. In one of my favorite cities that is landmarked heavily in the music and visuals of 'Patterns,' I'm so giddy to be celebrating this album release one night only at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN." She also announced that opening the show will be Aly & AJ and Tigirlily Gold. Her album "Patterns" is due out on October 25th, with the album release show four days later, on October 29th. Tickets go on sale this Thursday. See Kelsea's announcement below...
