Hayden says “what first led me to country music was the honesty of the lyrics. Truth is hard to find and here was a genre where many of the early songs of country music had laid bare the honesty of a feeling, of a situation or of an emotion. Really, truth is hard to find and it’s especially difficult to be honest with yourself,” according to his website.

He’s always appreciated the innocence to the songwriting of the early songwriters of the country genre.

Tickets cost $25.
