The two will join Little Big Town, Luke Bryan and the Pistol Annies, among more to be announced at the show, which will air live June 5th @ 8PM ET/PT on CMT.
Check out Hunter Hayes perform during the Sunday night (May 5) episode of Celebrity Apprentice!
The 21-year-old country crooner was brought in by contestant Trace Adkins to help their team win the task. He performed his hit “Somebody’s Heartbreak.”
“The video is about a long-distance relationship and the toughness of having a long-distance relationship,” Huntersaid. “Cause that’s what kind of the song is about. It’s about the crazy things you do for someone when you’re crazy about them.”
Hunter Hayes jams out with Stevie Wonder on Monday night’s (April 22) Dancing With The Stars in Los Angeles.
The 21-year-old musician reunited with the 62-year-old legend for the program, and sung “I Ain’t Gonna Stand For It”.
Stevie shared with CMT about Hunter, “You know, what can I say? This young man is a blessing to country music, and to America, because he really has listened to all kinds of music. You can hear those influences in what he’s doing — and he does it so incredibly well. And he blends it with what he knows and how he feels. But most of all, what excites me about Hunter Hayes is the pureness inside that heart, his love for music. It’s really emotional to me because I see God working in him.”
