Hunter Hayes recently had an oppor­tu­nity to meet one of his per­sonal heroes – Keith Urban! The singer was amazed by Keith’s sin­cer­ity, and can still vividly remem­ber their con­ver­sa­tion. (Audio) “We talked about music for a while. Then of course we talked about cars– I insti­gated that con­ver­sa­tion. But, then he asked me, ‘What kind of music did you lis­ten to grow­ing up.?’ I looked at my man­ager and I looked back at him, and I go, ‘Well, you.’ It was so cool – and I’m still star-struck by him.” Hunter is gear­ing up for one of the biggest tours of the year – Car­rie Underwood’s Blown Away Tour! It kicks off Sep­tem­ber 14th in Man­ches­ter, New Hampshire.
