Shelton goes on the road

Wednesday, October 31, 2018 – Blake Shelton will do something a little different when he goes on the road next year - he's going out with some veteran musicians opening for him.

Shelton will tour with The Bellamy Brothers, Trace Adkins, John Anderson and Lauren Alaina on the "Friends & Heroes 2019."

The tour kicks off on Feb. 14 in Oklahoma City, Okla. and will span 18 dates.

"I'm really excited about my tour because it's taking where I came from and the music I listened to growing up and actually introducing it to a whole new audience," Shelton said. "I feel like a lot of people might know the Bellamy Brothers' and John Anderson's music, but maybe they're not familiar with who they are as artists. I think that this is going to be a great opportunity for the country music fan base to be re-introduced to these guys and, selfishly, I'm just excited to share the stage with them.

Tour dates are:
Feb. 14 OKC, OK Chesapeake Energy Arena
Feb. 15 Kansas City, MO Sprint Center
Feb. 16 Sioux Falls, SD Denny PREMIER Center
Feb. 21 Indianapolis, IN Bankers Life Fieldhouse
Feb. 22 Buffalo, NY KeyBank Center

CD review - Fully Loaded: God's Country Blake Shelton has been openly critical of the traditional album format. "Fully Loaded: God's Country" is his fourth greatest hits album and third in the "Loaded" series. In an effort to release music more often, he packages five new songs with seven of previously released material that has received considerable airplay and time on the charts. if you're looking for the fresh stuff, this is essentially an EP spearheaded by the Platinum lead single "God's Country. ...
CD review - Texoma Shore Blake Shelton's 11th studio album finds The Voice advisor in a contented, one might even say homey, frame of mind. The opening track and first single "I'll Name the Dogs" sets the tone. It's a rollicking ode to domesticity that manages to make household chore distribution ("You find the spot and I'll find the money / You be the pretty and I'll be the funny") both romantic and amusing. The beat switches to hip-hop on "Money," but the sentiment ...
CD review - Live EP This six-song "Blake Shelton Live EP" seems a little odd. It's not as though Shelton had an especially noteworthy tour to document. Besides, at only six songs long, it's a relatively short document, anyhow. While it may be little more than a post-it note of a project, though, it also packs a powerful punch. You recognize right away the large amount of enthusiasm the act of singing to an audience brings out of Shelton. When compared to the recorded versions of these hits, ...
