The Fargo, North Dakota born "Blind Joe" had all four judges turn their chairs and he chose Team Blake.

I personally have a connection to Joe as not only am I from the Fargo area originally, but I'm family friends with  the Bommersbachs and have known Joe for many years. His parents bought my Grandfather's farm and my wife and I literally lived 100 yards away from them for about a year.

This has been an amazing journey for Joe, he's been known in the Upper Midwest for many years. We've always been in awe of his ability to play guitar and sing without the luxury of being able to see.

Not since Johnny Lang have we had someone hit the national stage like this.

Joe's always been a fan of blues and traditional country, he's easily find his niche and do well on the show. His outgoing personality will also get him a long way, he's a fun loving guy with an awesome family.

Here's the fully story from KVLY TV 11 in Fargo.
