BOBBYCAST - Hunter Hayes on Child Stardom, Leaving Nashville, His Love of Coldplay & New Music

Hunter Hayes sits down with Bobby to talk about what it was really like growing up in music, from performing at just 4 years old to becoming one of country music’s young stars. He opens up about the pressure of child stardom, why he eventually stepped away from Nashville, and what led him back to making music on his own terms. Hunter also shares what it felt like living a double life at times, balancing the expectations that came with early success while still trying to figure out who he was away from the spotlight. He talks about the freedom that came with leaving, the perspective he gained during that chapter, and how it shaped the way he creates now. Plus, Hunter gets into his love of Coldplay, the inspiration behind his new album, and why this next season of music feels different than anything he’s done before. Watch The BobbyCast on Netflix!
