Congratulations to Walker Hayes on eight years of sobriety. To celebrate, Hayes has released new music, he’s going on tour and releasing a non-alcoholic beer. First up, the “Fancy Like” singer dropped a five-song EP called “Sober Thoughts.” It includes two brand new tracks called “Same Drunk” and “Beat the Bottle.” Next, he will be launching the Same Drunk summer tour in May. He’s got three shows scheduled in Colorado: August 15 in Grand Junction, August 16 in Vail and August 17 at the new Sunset Amphitheater in Colorado Springs. Finally, Hayes has once again teamed up with Athletic Brewing Company to create a non-alcoholic, classic American Pale Ale called “Fancy Like.” At this time, presale orders are no longer available. However, fans can register their name on a waitlist through the brewer’s website.
