MYRTLE BEACH, SC — March 1, 2026 — Singer-songwriter David Hays’s new release of his new five-song EP American Dream on all major streaming platforms brings together nationally recognized collaborators and growing radio support.
The project includes accompaniment from Nashville bluegrass trio Thunder & Rain on “American Dream” and “Fork in the Road,” along with a featured duet with Nashville recording artist Vickie Vaughn, adding a distinctive acoustic and vocal texture to the record.
Early singles “American Dream” and “Citizen” have already gained traction across the country, with adds on numerous Americana and Folk stations and chart appearances across Triple-A/Alternative (JBE/Mediabase), Americana (CDX/AMA/RMR), and the NACC Folk Top 200.
Rooted in finger-style guitar and narrative songwriting, American Dream reflects Hays’s journey from Signal Mountain, Tennessee to Nashville and now the Carolina coast, weaving together themes of identity, redemption, and belonging.
“These songs are about the search for home — not just a place, but a community,” Hays said. “Collaborating with such gifted musicians was a privilege; they really helped bring the songs to life, and I’m excited to share them widely.”
The EP will be available for streaming on your favorite streaming platforms.
