Well, he did it! Hunter Hayes is now the Guinness World Records record-holder for Most Concerts Played in multiple cities in 24 hours.
Hayes played 10 shows in 10 cities in 24 hours and broke the Flaming Lips world record of eight shows in 24 hours. The "24 Hour Road Race to End Child Hunger,” brought to you in part by ConAgra Foods’ Child Hunger Ends Here program, kicked off Friday, May 9 on Good Morning America (GMA) on ABC in Times Square and took off hitting Boston, Worcester, Mass., Providence, R.I., New London, Conn., New Haven, Conn., Stamford, Conn., South Orange, N.J., Asbury Park, N.J. and finally culminating with an exciting finale in Philadelphia.
“I cannot believe how much fun this whole day has been and that it's only been a day! 10 shows in 24 hours with the best fans in the world and a great cause with Child Hunger Ends Here,” said Hayes. “I’m so proud to get to work with them and all the sponsors. Thank you to all the fans for not only making history with us but also making this whole thing absolutely awesome!”
Support acts that helped keep the momentum going included breakout country duo Dan + Shay, critically-acclaimed newcomer Charlie Worsham, up-and-coming country band The Railers, and singer/songwriters Dean Alexander and Matt Sucich, with the official music playlist powered by “The Country Club with Dee Jay Silver.”
Now that his world record has been taken care of, Hayes will resume his We're Not Invisible Tour, featuring Danielle Bradbery and Dan + Shay.
