The Wheels Up Tour Lands at Jones Beach

1 Comment

A fangirl freakout definitely occurred when we  found out that two of our favorite artists, Sam Hunt and Hunter Hayes, would be on tour together this Summer!   Sam and Hunter are opening up for Lady Antebellum on the Wheels Up Tour, hitting cities across the US throughout the Summer.  We’ve been counting down the days since the tour was announced in January and finally got to check it out when it hit Jones Beach!

It was a perfect early Summer night for the first show of the season at Nikon Jones Beach Theater.  Sam Hunt got the evening started with hits like “Take Your Time” and “House Party,” and got the whole house on their feet.  He even came out into the crowd to sing and get up close and personal with some lucky fans!   Sam sure knows how to get the party started and leave the night on.

Hunter Hayes continues to impress us – every time we see him we are blown away by just how talented he is.  You can also tell just how much he loves music and loves performing.  Hunter makes sure that each live performance is a unique experience, and creates new arrangements with extended guitar solos and instrumentation.   We’ve seen him quite a few times now, and have never heard the same song played in the same way.   Hunter also incorporated some new skills, like beatboxing, and showed off his vocal range.

Hunter is also using his popularity for a good cause, and announced a campaign for the American Red Cross to go along with his new single, “21.”  He’s encouraging 21,000 fans to sign up to donate blood, even if it means conquering their fear of needles.  Read more about the #HH21SleevesUp Campaign!

Listen To Austin Mahone’s New Track, “Torture”

Leave a comment

Austin Mahone has been keeping us waiting for new music since his “Secret” EP came out last May, one of our favorites of the year.  His next single, “Dirty Work,” is expected to drop “soon” and we hope he doesn’t mean band soon!  Austin is fully aware of the torture he’s put us through while we wait for new music, so appropriately enough, he just dropped his another new track he wrote with Robert Villanueva called “Torture!”

Listen to the track below and download for free on SoundCloud!  We can’t wait to hear “Dirty Work” … soon and hope it continues Austin’s 90s-boyband-esque pop sounds.
