That's emboldened him as he begins thinking about recording a new album. He says recent music by Train, John Mayer, Mutemath and Coldplay has charged his imagination and is encouraging him to consider more experimentation. "This year I got into two or three different bands because their records, which were not on country radio stations, had elements of the things I love," Hayes said. "They had bluegrass instruments. They had really cool organic grooves that I love and was so excited to hear. ... It's important for me to sort of merge all these sounds into one to help me create mine, whatever that is." And maybe he'll invite in a collaborator or two this time. Or try a new songwriting process in the studio. "All these different things I've always wanted to try," Hayes said. "I think it's important not to pick a process and say this is the way I'm always going to make my record because that turns out the same results over and over. I get bored with something really quickly, so I kind of want to try something any way." ___ Online:
