How do Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani spend their downtime? From the looks of their new video for “Nobody But You,” they snuggle up at the shoreline, get cozy on the couch, sip milkshakes and swap French fries … you know, all the things that sweethearts do. But with Shelton’s sly sense of humor, it’s not a surprise that the dinner somehow ends up at the ocean.

Everyone is invited to join in on the fun as celebrations continue all week long with live music programming presented by Spotify. During select hours, guests can experience the restaurant’s highly anticipated menu under the direction of James Beard Award Nominated Executive Chef Garrett Pittler. Highlights include everything from traditional southern favorites (hot chicken, fried pickles and skillet cornbread) to high-end cuisine (oysters, pimento cheese burrata and charcuterie), with a few clever, Oklahoma-inspired specialties like catfish corndogs as well as specialty, hand-crafted cocktails, local brews and a curated wine selection.
“Ole Red is an experience unlike anywhere else on Broadway – from the live entertainment quality to the food, drinks, décor and retail,” said Ryman Hospitality Properties Chairman and CEO Colin Reed. “We are excited to celebrate its grand opening with the thousands of fans and visitors that join us in Nashville for one of the most exciting weeks of the year, CMA Fest.”
Ole Red Nashville is a multi-level, 26,000 square foot entertainment epicenter at the intersection of city chic and southern roots, and is raising the bar on Broadway. The venue features a two-story bar and restaurant, retail area, performance space, dance floor, private VIP booths for small groups as well as a large, upscale private event space – The Hall at Ole Red. The performance space is equipped with a state-of-the-art sound system and acoustics tailor-made for event programming, including intimate concerts, live-band karaoke, showcases for up-and-coming talent and more.
Topping off Ole Red Nashville is a 6,000-square-foot rooftop with an indoor/outdoor bar and restaurant called The Lookout at Ole Red, which provides unmatched views of historic lower Broadway and downtown Nashville.
The Ole Red concept first came to life in Shelton’s adopted hometown of Tishomingo, Okla., last fall. Nashville is the second location, with a third planned for Gatlinburg, Tenn., set to open in 2019.

About Blake Shelton
Country Music Association’s 2012 “Entertainer of the Year,” five-time Male Vocalist of the Year winner and GRAMMY nominee Blake Shelton continues to add to his superstar status. In November he released his album Texoma Shore, which became his sixth record to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and marked his 11th all-genre Top 10. Texoma Shore features his Top 10 and climbing single “I Lived It” as well as the smash hit “I’ll Name The Dogs,” a romantic tune that boasts over 68 million streams and recently became his 25thNo. 1 song. In the week following album launch, Shelton became the first artist in Country Aircheck / Mediabase history to have six songs chart simultaneously. Texoma Shore follows 2016’s Gold-certified If I’m Honest, the best-selling country album release of the year, which spawned three chart-topping songs and earned him a No. 1 on both the Billboard Top Country Albums and the all-genre Top Album Sales charts.
A member of the Grand Ole Opry, Shelton has earned a host of honors throughout his career including 20 ACM nominations and the Top Country Artist title at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards. Shelton proved worthy of the distinction on this winter’s Country Music Freaks headlining tour alongside Brett Eldredge, Carly Pearce and special guest Trace Adkins. As a coach for the Emmy Award-winning television show “The Voice“, Shelton is a six-time champion, most recently with his contestant Chloe Kohanski. Offstage, Shelton has teamed up with Ryman Hospitality to open a string of Ole Red entertainment restaurant venues, a nod to his 2001 hit of the same name. The flagship location in his Oklahoma hometown Tishomingo opened its doors in September 2017, with Nashville’s venue on lower Broadway following in May 2018.
