Blake Shelton of The Voice recently announced he would be taking part in a music festival. It looks like he will be sharing the big stage with multiple other country music legends, and fans are pumped to see Shelton get back to what he loves doing: making music and singing.
Shelton just recently found himself off the market as a part of the “It” couple of NBC’s The Voice. Shelton and Gwen Stefani married out in Oklahoma on July 3. Both singers first met when they were coaches on the show back in 2014. At the time, both were married. The taboo relationship shocked fans, but soon, both coaches filed for divorce. NBC viewers enjoyed watching their courtship bloom as they often jokingly hassled one another while on the show.
Now, Billboard has shared that Shelton will be joining the iHeart Country Festival. The lineup is said to also include Little Big Town, Lee Brice, and Carly Pearce. Country music fans can look forward to buying tickets in the fall. Other stars who are said to take the stage are Jake Owen, Cole Swindell, Toby Keith, and Chase Rice, yee-haw! This will be the eighth year of the country music festival and will be set with the backdrop of Austin, Texas, at the Frank Erwin Center on Saturday, Oct. 30.
As most fans are aware, the 2020 version had to go virtual due to the worldwide pandemic. The show will be hosted by Bobby Bones, who is a local radio host. Shelton skipped his honeymoon with his new wife in order to get back to Los Angeles for work. The TV and music star has a lot on his plate and is looking to juggle all of his commitments.
The iHeart Country Festival is one of country music's biggest nights out. Music fans are more than excited to welcome back live music, not to mention the lineup. The concert will also be streaming on LiveXLive for all fans to hear. Shelton and Stefani had an intimate wedding ceremony over the July Fourth holiday weekend. Carson Daly officiated the country-meets-rock ceremony. Stefani's children were also present for the "I dos." The newlyweds told fans that the wedding was super chill and everything that they had hoped it would be. The Voice is set to start filming soon with a whole new batch of possible stars ready to wow viewers. As for Shelton and Stefani, they are looking toward enjoying their time as husband and wife.
