Looking to start your weekend off on the right note? Then let us direct your attention to St. Louis Cardinals ace and shower-singing sensation Adam Wainwright as he belts out a few lyrics from Taylor Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off.”





What you’ve just witnessed is not a lost audition for “The Voice.” It’s Wainwright preparing for the Big League Impact Sing off and Karaoke Challenge he’ll be hosting on Jan. 16 at Dave & Buster’s in Maryland Heights, MO. The event will run from 5 PM to 8 PM, and will feature ten singers from around the St. Louis area competing to garner some attention and earn time in the studio to perhaps record a future hit of their own.

The main event though — or at least of most interest to baseball fans — will be when Wainwright hits the stage to perform some of his favorite tunes. He’ll even perform a duet with a random winner, which figures to be outstanding.

If you’re in the area and would like to enter or attend, you can click here for all of the pertinent information. Worth noting, 50 percent of the proceeds will be donated to charity.

If you’re not in the area, well, you’ll just have to settle for playing this gem of a recording from Wainwright’s shower studio over and over again.
