Hunter Hayes: The Evergreen Tour with special guest Franklin Jonas & The Byzatines
5x GRAMMY® nominated and PLATINUM-selling, multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, Hunter Hayes announced his new album, Evergreen, releasing March 6th, 2026. In addition to the forthcoming album, Hayes also announced his 2026 headlining Evergreen Tour, which will kick off on March 25th in Hopewell, VA and stop by Cincinnati, OH for a performance at Taft Theatre on Friday, April 17. Franklin Jonas & The Byzantines will support as special guests for the Cincinnati performance.
This new project features pop, country, R&B, and indie rock-infused elements while exploring themes of growth, connection, and joy. Recorded with Alex Flagstad, Evergreen captures the full scope of Hayes’ creativity – songs that are as emotionally rich as they are musically daring. From the buoyant optimism of “Around the Sun,” to the playful vulnerability of “Every Piece,” and the infectious tension of “Wait,” these recent releases reveal Hayes as a songwriter in constant evolution, whose heart-forward storytelling continues to resonate across generations.
