Today's catch of the day comes from the youngest male artist to ever hit #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, and whom the magazine has called the leader of country music's youth revolution.

Hunter Hayes released his self titled debut album in 2011. The album reached #6 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and climbed to #1 on the Country Albums Chart. The lead single, "Wanted", has sold more than 3.5 million copies, and made Hayes, at age 20, the youngest artist male artist to climb to the #1 spot on the Billboard chart. The album also featured the singles "Somebody's Heartache" and "I Want Crazy" which peaked at #2 and #1. A fourth single, "Everybody's Got Somebody But Me" reached #18.
