NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Sept. 5, 2014) – Last night on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, four-time GRAMMY nominee Hunter Hayes took over the show’s outdoor concert stage, performing his ear-catching, Top 30-and-climbing single “Tattoo” and No. 1 smash hit “I Want Crazy” along with several other hits. Kimmel also called out the multi-instrumentalist in his opening monologue, challenging Hayes to play all 30 instruments in his repertoire at the same time. When Hayes appeared on stage strapped with dozens of instruments, he quipped, “I think you might have taken this a bit literally!”

Hayes also debuted the high-tech LED wristbands, powered by Glow Motion Technologies, that will come with each ticket purchased for his upcoming Tattoo (Your Name) Tour. Equipped with custom technology that has never been taken on an entire tour before now, the wristbands will allow fans not only to participate in the concert experience, but to be the concert experience. Additionally, Hayes is partnering with the USO to create special moments for troops and families at each show on the Tattoo (Your Name) Tour that will honor the military as part of the USO’s “Every Moment Counts” campaign. Prior to the tour’s October 30 kick-off, Hayes will also perform two USO performances, one stateside and one overseas.
Tickets are on sale to the public today for tour stops in Albany, N.Y.; Cleveland, Ohio; Detroit, Mich.; Kansas City, Mo.; London, Ontario, Canada; Providence, R.I.; St. Louis, Mo. and University Park, Penn. Tickets are also available for Hayes’ Dec. 5 show in Jacksonville, Fla.
