Blake Shelton brings new flavor to Stanislaus county fair

Turlock, CA—There will be more than the tastes of cotton candy and corn dogs at the county fair when Blake Shelton takes the stage with a country music flavor of his own.

 Entrancing listeners through his vocal acrobatics, Blake Shelton is waking up country music fans bringing his own spices to the Budweiser Variety Free Stage, Wednesday, Aug. 1 at 8:30 p.m. at this years’ Stanislaus County Fair. All concerts are included with the price of admission.

Country singer Blake Shelton is fresh and unique and definitely a great addition to country music,” said Pennie Rorex, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair. “His concert is certain to be a great treat to our fair guests.”

Blake Shelton, a powerful and expressive vocalist, is ready to showcase his impressive songwriting skills.  His featured debut album “Blake Shelton, Pure BS” may have an amusing title, but “pure” has country music fans interested everywhere. “I want to make albums that [last] forever that people never throw away. When they break it they go buy another one because I sing songs that they really relate to and my music means something to them. That’s what I’m chasing.”

            In addition to his longtime collaborator, Bobby Braddock, Shelton worked with producers Brent Rowan and Paul Worley on his new CD.  As an artist, Shelton has shown steady growth and momentum since his impressive 2001 debut, which earned him the title of Radio & Records Magazine’s breakthrough country artist of the year.  His numerous hit songs include the sweet sentiments of “Austin,” and “Goodbye Time” reaching out to his fans with meaningful music that will touch your heart. 

Blake Shelton is the first of 10 free celebrity concerts to be announced for the 2007 Stanislaus County Fair.

The Stanislaus County Fair is now in its 96th year. The 2007 fair opens Friday, July 27 for a 10-day run. The theme of this year’s fair, “Summer Safari,” will provide a great adventure for kids and adults alike. Discount carnival and admission tickets for the 2007 fair, as well as tickets for all motorsports events in the FoodMaxx Arena, go on sale Saturday, May 5, 2007.

The mission of the Stanislaus County Fair is to provide a family and community oriented experience promoting agriculture, entertainment and technology. For more information about the Stanislaus County Fair log onto its website at www.stancofair.com.
