Busy Summer Tour Continues
The Shenandoah Valley native continues to gain momentum as one of country music’s emerging young performers.
Known for his energetic concerts, strong musicianship, and authentic storytelling, Hatcher is spending the summer performing alongside several established country artists. He recently appeared at back-to-back amphitheater shows supporting Hank Williams Jr. and also shared the stage with Zach Top and Diamond Rio during the Nebraskaland Days festival.
This weekend, Hatcher will join the Gatlin Brothers for the Summer Motion Festival’s Fourth of July celebration in Ashland, Kentucky.
Building a Growing Fan Base
Raised on a farm in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, Hatcher developed his love of music at an early age. He began playing the five-string banjo at 11 years old in his family’s bluegrass band before forming his own country band in 2020 with his younger brother, Connor Hatcher, who plays bass and provides harmony vocals.
His combination of traditional country influences and modern energy has helped him build a loyal audience. Hatcher now performs more than 150 shows each year while attracting nearly one million followers across social media platforms.
On TikTok alone, he has accumulated more than 72 million organic views and 8.7 million likes, leading to a partnership with PepsiCo that included co-writing and performing a bluegrass jingle for a nationwide Mountain Dew Major Melon commercial.
Momentum Continues to Build
Hatcher’s debut EP, Honky Tonk Hideaway, introduced fans to his first single, “When She Calls Me Cowboy,” which debuted as a Top 10 Most Added Song at U.S. Country Radio according to Mediabase. The song’s official music video also reached No. 1 on Taste of Country’s fan-voted Top 10 Video Countdown.
With the release of Hot Weather, Cold Beer and a packed summer touring schedule ahead, Hatcher continues to establish himself as one of country music’s rising young artists.
