Acadiana's own Atlantic Nashville recording artist Hunter Hayes is taping a special performance tonight from the MTV newsroom in New York City, and fans can watch it at CMT.com starting at 6 p.m. CST. The live-streaming event will feature an acoustic version of Hayes' love-struck hit, "Wanted," along with his newest single, "Somebody's Heartbreak." After his performance, Hayes will stick around to answer fans' questions which can be submitted through Twitter by using the @MTVNews handle and #AskHunter hashtag. Hayes is up for three Grammys on Sunday night (Feb. 10) after receiving his first-ever nominations.
