Blake Shelton took the stage at Ole Red Nashville on Wednesday, April 29 for a private concert with the winners of the Spring Blake 2026 Sweepstakes, and man, it was one helluva show.
Broadway was buzzing as the sweepstakes winners entered Ole Red about an hour before the show, mingling with fellow fans while Ole Red house band favorites, The Mobile Homeboys, got the night started right.
Blake made his entrance, strolling straight through the crowd like he owned the place (which… he kinda does), and he kicked things off with “Pour Me A Drink” and a promise: “We’re gonna have a damn party tonight, you guys.”
He played some crowd pleasers like “All About Tonight,” “Sangria,” and “Texas,” before stopping to take in the moment.
“For everybody standing out there, going up and down the street, it’s a Wednesday night… not for us in here,” he said.
And get this—Blake had been in Indianapolis that morning, announcing the newest Ole Red location.
“Indianapolis is going to be our seventh location,” he said. “We’re like McDonalds now…we’re everywhere.” He talked about the wild ride of opening the first Ole Red, how the whole idea was built around the music, and how nights like this prove they’re still doing it right.
He kept the set rolling with more hits like “Hillbilly Bone,” “Austin,” and of course, “Ol’ Red.” Between songs he joked with fans, grabbed a hat that read “You can kiss my ass in BFE” and aimed it toward his buddy Luke Bryan just to stir the pot.
These are the kind of moments that only happen at Ole Red—the ones that keep fans coming back. We can’t wait to keep the good times going with Ole Red Indy, coming late 2027. In the meantime, follow along and keep your eyes open for more Spring Blake‑style surprises, more music, and more chances to party with the boss man himself.
As Blake said, “We’ll see y’all down the road somewhere…”
And we’ll sure as hell see y’all at Blake’s place to play.
