Shelton began singing at an early age and by age 12, he was taught how to play the guitar by his uncle. By age 15, he had written his first song. By age 16, he had received a Denbo Diamond Award in his home state. On November 13, 1990, his older brother Richie Shelton ( who was 24 ) was killed in an automobile accident. After graduating from high school at seventeen, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee to pursue a singing career. There he got a job at a music publishing company and, in 1997, he was aided by Bobby Braddock to obtain a production contract with Sony Music. Music career Performing at the Crawford County Fair, Meadville, PA, in August 2005. 2001 -- 2006 : beginnings Some years later in Nashville, he signed to Giant Records in 2001. In 2001, he was slated to release a song entitled `` I Wanna Talk About Me '' as a single. Staff at the label considered the song unsuitable for a lead - off single, however, and the song was eventually recorded by Toby Keith, whose version was a number 1 single. Instead, Giant released `` Austin '' as Shelton 's debut single. Shortly after its release, Giant Records was closed, and Shelton was transferred to parent company Warner Bros. Records. `` Austin '' spent five weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks ( now Hot Country Songs ) charts. Warner released his self - titled debut album, which was produced by songwriter Bobby Braddock. It also produced the top 20 hits `` All Over Me '', which Shelton co-wrote with Earl Thomas Conley and Mike Pyle, and `` Ol ' Red ''. Although Shelton 's rendition of `` Ol ' Red '' was not a major radio hit, he considers it his signature song, and it has become popular in concert. Blake Shelton received a platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America ( RIAA ) for shipments of 1,000,000 copies. Blake Shelton received a positive review from Maria Konicki Dinoia of Allmusic, who called `` Austin '' `` tremendously imaginative '' and praised Shelton for including songs written by Braddock and Conley. Country Standard Time was less favorable, with Scott Homewood saying that it `` album just smacks of being assembled with the intent on capturing the burgeoning alternative country market ''. Shelton 's second album, The Dreamer, was first released on February 4, 2003, on Warner Bros. Records. Its lead - off single, `` The Baby '', reached No. 1 on the country charts, holding that position for three weeks. Although the second and third singles ( `` Heavy Liftin ' '' and `` Playboys of the Southwestern World '', respectively ) only reached No. 32 and No. 24, The Dreamer earned gold certification as well. He, along with Andy Griggs and Montgomery Gentry, sang guest vocals on Tracy Byrd 's mid-2003 single `` The Truth About Men ''. Blake Shelton 's Barn & Grill was the title of Shelton 's third studio album, released in 2004. Its lead - off single, the Harley Allen co-write `` When Somebody Knows You That Well '', peaked at No. 37 on the country charts, while the follow - up `` Some Beach '' became his third No. 1 hit, holding that position for four weeks.

This cover, released in early 2008 as the album 's third single, became his fourth No. 1 hit in July. `` Home '' was followed in August 2008 by the single `` She Would n't Be Gone '', his 14th chart entry and his fifth No. 1 hit. It was the first time in his career that he had two consecutive number ones. `` She Would n't Be Gone '' is the lead - off to Shelton 's fifth studio album, Startin ' Fires, which has also produced the single `` I 'll Just Hold On. '' This album also includes `` Bare Skin Rug, '' a duet with Lambert. It was produced by Scott Hendricks, except for one track which was produced by Brent Rowan, and another ( `` I Do n't Care '', which carried over from Pure BS ) was produced by Braddock.
