Blake Shelton brings good looks and music to Huntington

The world has finally learned what country fans have known since the beginning — Blake Shelton is superstar material.

Blake is the breakout star of NBC's The Voice, a show that gave the handsome Oklahoman the spotlight his fans have long hoped he'd get. Week after week, millions have gotten to see the talent and charisma that have made Blake one of country music's brightest lights.

Perhaps no one summed it up better than Entertainment Weekly editor-at-large Ken Tucker, who cited Blake's "steady transformation into a real TV star, a country sage whose charm is squarely in the great TV traditions of Roger Miller, Jimmy Dean, and Tennessee Ernie Ford."

None of that is news to those who have watched Blake's career unfold. Ever since the power and drama of his 2001 debut single, "Austin," brought him to national attention, Blake has proven himself to be one of the genre's most versatile and accomplished vocalists as well as one of its most compelling entertainers.

God's gift to both women and guitars, what a treat it is that Blake Shelton graces Toledo with his groundbreaking innovation and superstardom this Thursday, January 12 at the Huntington Center (500 Jefferson, Downtown Toledo). 7:30 p.m. $34 & $62. www.huntingtoncentertoledo.com
