The Swon Brothers Interview On Blake Shelton, Usher, Bob Seger, The Voice

Colton Swon, 25, and Zach Swon, 28, make up The Swon Brothers, the country duo who captivated America on the NBC singing competition The Voice. The brothers placed third and were the first duo in the show's history to make it to the season finale.

Hailing from Oklahoma, The Swon Brothers have been making music since they were young touring with their parents' gospel group. Colton once auditioned for American Idol and quickly found out the show didn’t fit him. “When it got closer time for them to tell the results for the top 24 on Idol, I was really getting sick because it would’ve been awesome to make it but, ultimately the goal is to do music with my brother you know, the rest of my life, not you know a solo career,” Colton told Uinterview exclusively.

While on The Voice, the brothers were mentored by country music star Blake Shelton who gave them the best advice of the season. “If you just be yourself and show who you are and do the best you can you know, if you’re not a big belter singer than don’t do it,” Zach said of his celebrity coach.
