\"\"Cherokee County native Bryce Leatherwood was named the winner of \u201cThe Voice\u201d Season 22 in December. During the season premiere, Bryce performed \u201cGoodbye Time,\u201d first released by Conway Twitty in 1988. He received a three-chair turnaround from the judges and chose Blake Shelton as his coach. After many strong performances throughout the season, including George Strait\u2019s \u201cAmarillo by Morning,\u201d Billy Currington\u2019s \u201cLet Me Down Easy,\u201d Justin Moore\u2019s \u201cIf Heaven Wasn\u2019t So Far Away\u201d and Morgan Wallen\u2019s \u201cSand in My Boots,\u201d Bryce won the audience over in the live finale with Travis Tritt\u2019s \u201cT-R-O-U-B-L-E\u201d and Keith Whitley\u2019s \u201cDon\u2019t Close Your Eyes.\u201d He also made history as the first winner of the show to be saved by the audience through Instant Save voting in the playoffs.<\/p>\n

Born and raised in the Hickory Flat community, Bryce attended Hickory Flat Elementary, Dean Rusk Middle and Sequoyah High. In 2018, he left his hometown to enroll at Georgia Southern University, where he recently earned a degree in business management.<\/p>\n

In seventh grade, he won his middle school talent show, and his passion for performing publicly bloomed. After playing local gigs at venues like MadLife Stage & Studios in Woodstock, Bryce auditioned for \u201cThe Voice.\u201d Since his win, he has performed at Blake Shelton\u2019s Ole Red venues across the country, on tour with Dwight Yoakam, at the Country Music Association Fest in Nashville, Barefoot Music Festival in New Jersey and more.<\/p>\n

In May, Bryce attended Craig Morgan\u2019s Woodstock Summer Concert Series event and gave the crowd a surprise performance when Morgan called him onto the stage. Next month, he will headline his own free concert at Northside Hospital-Cherokee Amphitheater in Woodstock, Aug. 25 at 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

To set the stage, Bryce\u2019s father, Cliff, posted on Facebook: \u201cSo excited and grateful that the city of Woodstock and Carriage Kia will be hosting Bryce\u2019s homecoming show. \u2026 Mark your calendars, get your friends and family to do the same, and let\u2019s pack this place. Gonna be a great night of country music!\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans likely expect performances of country classics at the upcoming concert, but they might be surprised to learn that Bryce has co-written songs, including \u201cBoth Sides of the Fence\u201d and \u201cLast Thing on My Mind,\u201d which he has performed at live shows and previewed on Instagram.
