Hunter Hayes To Release New Album This Week

This will be Hunter Hayes' first album release since 2015.

(Undated)  --  Hunter Hayes is announcing the release of his new album. 

During an appearance on the "Today" show yesterday, Hayes said 'Wild Blue (Part 1)' will be released digitally this Friday.  That's two months before its scheduled release date. 

Hayes co-wrote all ten songs on the album, including his current single, "Heartbreak." 

"My priorities shifted and rather than just putting out a conventional album, which was hard for me to come to that realization because I really wanted to, I think a lot of things happened at the right time," Hayes told Billboard magazine. "And by the grace of God, I was able to look around and say, 'This is not the time to release a record and this is not the record I want to release.'"
