Country Music Star Blake Shelton and Warner Music Nashville have parted ways following a record-setting and historic two-decade partnership.

“I moved to Nashville when I was 17 to sing country music and get a record deal,” said Shelton. "Along with the support from Warner, my dreams came true, and then some. It’s impossible to name everyone who has had a hand in all the success we enjoyed, but a huge and heartfelt thank you to the Giant Records, Warner Bros. Records and Warner Music Nashville staff and family.”

“Working alongside Blake these past 23 years has been an honor and a privilege,” said Warner Music Nashville. “Together, we’ve celebrated a record number of hit songs, sold-out tours and award wins. Blake's talent is undeniable, but that wit of his, and the countless moments of laughter he's given us remind us how fun this business of music can be. While our time together has come to an end, we count ourselves amongst his biggest fans and are grateful for the ride with this true gentleman and icon.”

Shelton burst onto the scene in 2001 with his No. 1 debut single, “Austin,” which began a string of 28 No. 1 singles, 11 Billion Global streams, 13 million albums, and 52 million singles sold. He won 10 CMA Awards, including Entertainer of the Year and five consecutive Male Vocalist of the Year Awards, multiple ACM, AMA, CMT, People’s Choice awards and more.
