Easton Corbin has considered himself "very fortunate" in his career to have been able to share the stage with the likes of Blake Shelton, Brad Paisley and Rascal Flatts. Through those high-profile tours, Corbin has learned many things that have helped him grow as an entertainer and a performer over time.
"As a new artist, I think you're always growing and evolving, just like in the recording process of it -- or should be, I hope," Corbin tells Roughstock with a smile. "That's the same aspect with a live performance. I still find stuff in my shows that don't work, and I still find stuff that works great. I feel like every day I'm out there performing that I get better. I think a big part of that is watching these other guys because they've been doing it for a long time. I think as a new artist, you learn what works, but more importantly, what doesn't work for you. I think you need to take a little bit of what they do and shape it and mold it to what works for you."
Apparently Blake Shelton enjoyed Corbin's music, show and him as a person so much on their first trek together, that the singing superstar has summoned the newcomer to join him once again this summer on his Ten Times Crazier Tour.
"He just couldn't find anybody else, I reckon," laughs Corbin. "It's a great honor to be asked back out to open for him. He was big then, but he's really blown up with the platform of 'The Voice.' I think it's exposed him to a lot broader of an audience out there, which is great for me because then it brings those people that might have not heard my music before that. There's a lot of people out there, so that gives me a chance to gain or make some more fans."
