Hagan began his career with studio recording sessions for albums for artists primarily in the Christian Music genre. He was featured on many Christian albums in the early 2000s.

In 2011, Hagan began touring as guitarist, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and bandleader for LeAnn Rimes, moving away from regular sessions.[3][4] He has been featured on four studio albums by Rimes. He is the Musical Director for LeAnn Rimes and is known for his acoustic duets with her.[5][6] One duet in 2020 garnered attention from news sites like Billboard Magazine due to its western theme and costuming for their cover of Lewis Capaldi's "Someone You Loved".[7][8]
