Hunter Hayes Sees The Glass Half Full On Upcoming New Project ‘Evergreen’

/by

Hunter Hayes will release his upcoming new album Evergreen on March 6.

The hopeful new project meshes elements of pop, country, R&B and indie rock, and explores themes of growth, connection and joy. From the buoyant optimism of “Around the Sun,” to the playful vulnerability of “Every Piece,” and the infectious tension of “Wait,” the tracks reveal Hayes as a songwriter in constant evolution, whose heart-forward storytelling continues to resonate across generations. The album examines the core value that love, presence, and compassion begin with the self, and across its songs, Hayes questions long-held beliefs about performance, worthiness, love, and masculinity, embracing a definition of strength that is soft and evolving.

“Evergreen started as a series of letters from my future self,” says Hayes. “In some ways a prayer, and in some ways manifestation. I wanted to make a project from the future. It’s full of hope, optimism, light and love. It’s an escape from reality as well as a new way to appreciate the good things in our everyday life, and how every experience shapes us to better and brighter versions of ourselves as we create a better version of our future.”

Alongside the forthcoming album, Hayes revealed details for his 2026 headlining tour, “The Evergreen Tour,” set to kick off March 25 in Hopewell, Virginia. BLÜ EYES and Franklin Jonas & The Byzantines will support as special guests on the new dates.
