“'Encore' was an experiment. 'Encore' was the second chance at a first ...” — Hunter Hayes Quote

“'Encore' was an experiment. 'Encore' was the second chance at a first impression. 'Encore' was not completely planned.”

“I am blessed beyond belief.”

“I don't believe in making a record and rushing it.”

“Five or six songs leaked from the original version of 'Encore.' So I had to go in and make new songs to replace them.”

“What I love about Encores! is that it's a tremendous amount of work in a short amount of time, but it's just so festive and so celebratory and fun. It harkens back to the old days of just getting together and putting on a show.”

“I do not, as a rule, do encores. When I have finished playing, I have indeed finished playing. I have nothing left; there has been no reserve.”
