Hog-loving musician summons inner Brandon Allen, survives Knockout Round
Native Arkansan and longtime Razorback fan Barrett Baber survived another round of cuts Monday night on NBC's singing competition The Voice, besting competitor "Blind Joe" in the show's Knockout Round to move on to the live performance portion of the contest. Baber gave an inspired performance of Zac Brown Band's "Colder Weather" to punch his ticket to the next round, in which votes from the viewing audience determine who moves on and who goes home.
Arkansans in general, and Razorback fans specifically, have historically done an excellent job of getting out the vote in just about anything that can be voted on through the Internet, and a local talent like Baber is a worthy cause to which Arkansas Fight gives a hearty endorsement.
