His name is Barrett Baber. He’s originally from Marion, Arkansas. He’s now a school teacher in Fayetteville, Arkansas. AND…he blew’em away last night during the blind auditions on the season premiere of The Voice. Barrett has tons of talent, lots of charisma, and turned all four judge’s chairs last night with his rendition of Jeff Healy’s “Angel Eyes”. If Barrett gets to the live auditions, (and we think he will) we all need to vote for him. He will bring the national spotlight to NEA. Go Barrett Baber from Mix 106.3!!!
