art hunterhayesCountry star Hunter Hayes will begin his “21 Tour” at 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22, in the Ramsey Regional Activity Center at Western Carolina University. 

His tour features 21 dates at 21 college campuses across the country. Earlier this year, the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist teamed with streaming music service Spotify to identify college markets with a high density of passionate Hunter Hayes fans. WCU was among that group. Hayes, 23, is a four-time Grammy nominee and Country Music Association Award winner for “New Artist of the Year” in 2012.

Tickets are $20 for students and $25 for the general public. They can be purchased at the Ramsey box office, or online at ramsey.wcu.edu. The concert is sponsored by the departments of Campus Activities and Residential Living. Ryan Lafferty will be the opener.
