Hailey Whitters

Over the past year, Hailey Whitters’ career has continued to skyrocket as she took home the ACM Award for New Female Artist of the Year (2023) and was nominated for New Artist of the Year at CMA Awards (2023). Last year alone, she made her night TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, soon followed by performances on The Kelly Clarkson Show, NBC’s Today, and a performance of her hit single “Everything She Ain’t” at the ACM Awards. The breakthrough single appeared on her breakthrough album Raised, which, like her 2020 album The Dream, appeared on over 15 year-end best-of lists, and was named Rolling Stone’s #1 country album of the year. “Everything She Ain’t” marked multiple firsts for the Iowa-born artist including her first-ever top 20 single at country radio, appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 and RIAA Platinum certification. The song has been played over 175 million times on TikTok, inspiring multiple trends on the platform. Last year, Whitters mounted a headline tour in support of Raised, followed by tours with Shania Twain, Dierks Bentley, Eric Church and Luke Bryan. Last summer, Whitters followed her critically-acclaimed album Raised with a brand new-six song EP I’m In Love, tapping into her ‘90s country influences while exploring relationships, heartbreak and finding love. This year, Whitters hit the road for her headline Cant Tie’r Down Tour and Dan + Shay’s Heartbreak on the Map Tour, before hitting the road supporting Luke Combs and Jason Aldean. As in years past, Whitters will perform at a slew of music festivals throughout the year including Stagecoach, Railbird Music Festival, Carolina Country Music Festival, Barefoot Country Music Festival and Golden Sky Music Festival.
