Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton slayed a performance of No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak.”
Following the newlywed’s first public performance since their wedding on Thursday (July 15), the couple return to Shelton’s Ole Red bar and restaurant in Tishomingo, Oklahoma for a second live performance on Friday (July 16), which acted as rehearsals for the upcoming Friends And Heroes Tour.
“Come on out and get yourself a drink if you’re bored,” Shelton tweeted on Thursday morning (July 15), inviting fans to the concert. “I repeat it’s only a rehearsal… it may not be good but at least it’s free!”
I’ve got some shows coming up soon so I’m gonna be rehearsing today around 4 CT at @OleRed’s The Doghouse in Tishomingo. Come on out and get yourself a drink if you’re bored. I repeat it’s only a rehearsal… It may not be good but at least it’s free!

Shelton invited fans to a free concert which acted as rehearsals for his upcoming ‘Friends & Heroes’ tour, the pop-up rehearsals not only featured a variety of songs from Shelton’s catalog, including “Boys Round Here,” “Corn,” “Mine Would Be You,” and more. But it also featured he and Stefani’s chart-topping duets and a special rendition of No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak.”
While Shelton didn’t sing any vocals during their performance of the No Doubt track, he did join Stefani along with his full band to lend a hand on acoustic guitar while Stefani belted out the lyrics to the iconic ’90s pop hit.
Previously, Stefani and Shelton performed No Doubt’s “It’s My Life” during their Encore Live drive-in concert in 2020.
In addition to their performance of the No Doubt classic, Stefani and Shelton also performed their 2020 collaboration “Happy Anywhere,” which appears on his latest album, Body Language. The Voice coach and Stefani also performed their “Nobody But You,” a track that appears on Shelton’s 2019 album, Fully Loaded: God’s Country.

Shelton and Stefani recently tied the knot on the “Minimum Wage” singer’s ranch in Oklahoma.
After six years together, the country superstar, 45, and No Doubt singer, 51, exchanged vows during an intimate ceremony in front of their closest family and friends. The Carson Daly-officiated ceremony took place inside a chapel on Shelton’s ranch, built exclusively for the superstar couple to say their “I Do’s.”
Additionally, Shelton’s Friends And Heroes Tour kicks off later this summer on August 18 in Nebraska and will run through October. The country hitmaker’s tour comes in support of his latest album, Body Language, which was released earlier this year. The 12-track project includes his 28th No. 1 single “Happy Anywhere” and his recent single “Minimum Wage.”
It’s unclear if Stefani will be joining Shelton on the road for his upcoming trek, but fans are hoping that he brings her out during his shows for a stripped down acoustic performance, similar to what fans got to witness at Ole Red during rehearsals.
The tour includes support from Martina McBride, Tracy Byrd, Trace Adkins and Lindsay Ell. See a full list of tour dates below.
