Chris Young helps out fellow musician | Music City Minute

I have personally heard several stories about Chris Young's kindness toward musicians around the Nashville area. Everything from generous tips on gig nights to his latest act of goodwill for a fellow singer/songwriter named Sam Hayes. The Music City-based artist posted a viral video about his guitar getting crushed by an airline. Typically, Hayes carries-on his instrument, but on this particular flight, he was told the overhead bins were full and he needed to gate-check his guitar. Being that the instrument was in a soft-shell case, unfortunately, it ended up completely destroyed sometime between the loading and unloading process of the plane. Chris Young caught wind of the story and called up Hayes to tell him there was a Gibson acoustic guitar with his name on it waiting at a local vintage shop. The "Raised On Country" singer shared that something similar happened to him early in his career and he was proud to be able to help out a friend.
