Hunter Hayes may not have gone over with a bang at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, but he's up and running the morning after. Hayes debuted his new single, "Invisible," early during the ceremony via live performance, a performance that was generally panned by critics (SPIN described it as "utterly uninspiring"). The song's title serves as the theme for his forthcoming tour, which was announced Monday morning.
The "We're Not Invisible Tour" may make some of those critics feel a little bit bad. The title isn't just a reference to Hayes' new single, but also a reference to the Child Hunger Ends Here program, a charitable branch of ConAgra working to spread awareness of the said issue. The program is partially sponsoring the tour.
The tour will begin on March 20 in Pikeville, KY and will weave mainly around the Midwest and East Coast through May. Opening for Hayes will be country up-and-comer Danielle Bradbery and duo Dan + Shay.
