Description

Hailey Whitters is an Iowa-born, Nashville-based country singer-songwriter with a handful of solo albums and a Grammy nomination to her credit. Earlier this year Hailey had her first headlining tour from February to May (including some dates in the U.K. and Ireland for the C2C: Country to Country Festival in March). Next, Hailey is going out on a national tour opening for country star John Pardi starting in Irving, Texas on July 14 and finishing in Nashville on October 1.
Her third album, Raised, including the single "Everything She Ain't," was released in March on her own Pigasus Records label in partnership with Big Loud's Songs and Daughters imprint. Holler gave the album 9 out of 10 and called it "a generous and unabashed celebration of growing up in a big family in a small town, that cements Whitters as a true country songwriter of note." She was nominated for a 2022 Grammy for Song of the Year for co-writing the song "Beautiful Noise" performed by Alicia Keys and Brandi Carlile.

At Behind the Setlist, we talk to artists to get the stories about the songs they play live. Most artists are known best for their recordings, but they love to be on stage. That's where the music feels at home. That's where they connect with the audience. How do they pick the songs to take the audience on a journey? Why do they cover other artists' songs? How many new songs can an artist fit into a 16-song set when people want to hear the classics? We find out. Hosted by Glenn Peoples (Billboard) and Jay Gilbert (Label Logic).
