All artists hope that their music can touch fans, and Walker finds that his songs seem to touch people in a very personal way, “I write a lot of songs about addiction, and I’ve heard…somebody came up to me at a show one night and just said that hearing me talk about it in a song…be vocal about it…made them want to talk to somebody about it. Blew my mind that music  was that powerful.” Walker hopes that with that powerful connection to music, his current single can also help people, “the same thing with ‘You Broke Up With Me’…if that really is that little jolt of confidence that somebody needed that night, that’s outstanding.” Walker admits that feedback and connection is motivation for an artist, “That’s really what we all should write for.” Along with the music, fans are also connection to Walker’s homemade video for “You Broke Up With Me” which you can check out at Walker Hayes dot com, or just click right HERE

“There’s nothing more powerful, then one person comes up and says this song helped me through something, or this song saved me in some sense. That is mind blowing.

Blew my mind that music  was that powerful, and the same thing with ‘You Broke Up With Me’…if that really is that little jolt of confidence that somebody needed that night, that’s outstanding. That’s really what we all should write for.”
