The Voice Recap: Who Landed a Four-Chair Turn?

The Blind Auditions were dragged out even further on Monday’s episode of The Voice. 


But there was one silver lining:


The first duo in years made it to the Blind Auditions, but how did the couple fare?



OneUp (Team Kelly) – “Could It Be I’m Falling in Love”


Adam and Jerome got close to each other while shooting a music video, and decided it was time to form a duo. 


The issue, however, is that their vocals did not mesh well together. They would have been wiser to audition as solo acts. 


Kelly probably only took them on because it was so different to have a duo in the game. If they can dial back the confidence, they might be able to adapt. 


Natalie Brady (Team Adam) – “Barracuda”  


This 33-year-old Nashville singer showed up on the stage and immediately made it her own. With solid vocals and a great stage presence, she could be one to watch. 


The surprising thing was that she only got two chair turns, but she could be a success story with Adam’s help. 



Mike Parker (Team Jennifer) – “So Sick”


Mike was quick to point out that he lost all of his scholarships because his grades were not up to scratch. 


He turned to a career in construction, but he could probably carve out a career in music. His audition was solid, and we’re sure he will be a great addition to Team Jennifer. 


Erika Zade (Team Kelly) –  “New Rules”


Erika is the 20-year-old daughter of a rocker from Miami. She with Dua Lipa’s hit single for her audition, and let’s just say it was not what we expected. 


She put her own unique spin on it, but was there anything beyond that audition that she could accomplish? We have no idea.


Jarred Matthew (Team Adam) –  “Tired of Being Alone”


Jarred went with an Al Green classic, and his vocals hit astronomical heights. He had a lot of confidence, not as much as OneUp, and that’s a good thing. 


Out of all the performers Monday night, he is the most likely to make it further into the competition. He has the look of a superstar, so that’s a positive.


It will all come down to whether his chances are ruined by horrid song choices. 



Kayley Hill (Team Blake) – “Gold Dust Woman”


Anybody who can tackle a Fleetwood Mac number should automatically get a four-chair turn. There, we said it. 


Kayley was another solid performance, but she was a casualty of the short auditions. Maybe the producers wanted to save her best for the Batlle Rounds. 


Kirk Jay (Team Blake) – “God Bless the Broken Road”


This 22-year-old country singer turned in a striking performance that got the coveted four-chair turn. 


He was confident and knew what was expected of him, and he set out to prove to everyone that he should be kept in the game. 


In the end, he went to Team Blake, and that’s a good thing. 


What are your thoughts on the latest performances?

The Voice Recap: Who Got a Four-Chair Turn?!

Night two of The Voice Season 14 found coaches Kelly Clarkson, Alicia Keys, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton trying their best to find the next strong competitor who could be nurtured all the way until the end. 



It’s surprising that there are still some talented vocalists out there when you consider how long The Voice has been on the air. On top of that, it’s not like much of the winners have any staying power. 


Alas, singing competition series tend to go on for dear life. 


Who made it through to the next stage of the competition?


Let’s run down the latest auditions!


Davison – “To Love Somebody”


Davison appeared on the stage, and it seemed like he was going to be one of the best of the night. He talked a big game, but his vocals lacked something. 


His whole performance was littered with less than stellar vocals, and it showed throughout. Adam must have seen something in him because he got to join his team. 



Jaclyn Lovey – “Can’t Help Falling in Love”


This 16-year-old had it all: Solid vocals, charisma and a great stage presence. Her voice was something unheard of for her generation. It would not have been that surprising if she later revealed she was much older. 


Alicia seemed to like it, and that’s why the kid landed a spot on her team. 


Molly Stevens – “Heavenly Day”


While this was not the best Patty Griffin cover, the overall performance had a lot of good things. Molly struggled growing up as a gay Southern Baptist. 


Her story was heartbreaking but filled with hope.  The good thing to come out of all of that heartbreak is that she’s got a great voice and knows how to perform. 


She made her way to Team Kelly. We can’t help but think that was the best move for her at this stage. 



Dylan Hartigan – “Danny’s Song”


Once upon a time, Dylan was an actor, and after his first performance, we think he should probably stick to acting. His performance was shaky and unengaging. 


He joined Team Kelly, but it seems like one of the most bizarre pairings in the history of the series. 


Pryor Baird – “I Don’t Need No Doctor” 


This episode saved the best for last, and that came in the form of Pryor, a 35-year-old from California. He was a country singer, and Blake loved that. 



He snapped Pryor up for his team the moment he heard him open his mouth. He knew it was fate that a country singer would be sent to him before the episode was over. 


Okay, what did you think of the latest wave of auditions to rock The Voice?

The Voice Recap: Another Four-Chair Turn?

The Blind Auditions continued on the latest episode of NBC’s hit series, The Voice. 


With limited spots on each of the teams up for grabs, it was becoming more difficult for potential singers to advance to the Battle Rounds of the competition series. 



Despite some true duds, there were some people who got through that truly deserved it. Yes, there were some who did not advance who probably should have, but singing is all very subjective. 


Let’s run down the people who made the cut for the Battle Rounds. 


Adam Cunningham –  “Midnight Rider”


The 38-year-old started with a decent performance, but the judges were not sold until well into the performance. It’s amazing how quickly a few notes can change the whole thing, and we witnessed that happen with Adam. 


Blake wanted him from the get-go, and Blake always gets what he wants. Adam joined his team. 


Hannah Mrozak – “Starving”


Hannah’s brother committed suicide, and his wish before all of that was for her to audition for the show. She definitely has the vocal ability there. That was evident from her first performance. 


She made her way to Team Adam, but we have no idea at this stage whether he will be able to nurture her ability and make her into something better. 



Shilo Gold –  “Stay With Me, Baby”


This 26-year-old has a solid voice, and it got Miley and Jennifer fighting over her. The Denver native ultimately went with Team Miley, and we could definitely see this working out in a big way. Go get ‘em, Miley. 


Noah Mac – “Way Down We Go”


Noah is a 17-year-old who likes good music, and also likes to sing along to it. Like, it’s difficult to find his vocal range in any of today’s biggest singers. He is one to watch. Oh, and we should probably tell Liam Hemsworth that Miley is also one to watch. 


Miley did call Noah hot. Is this a talent competition or a beauty competition?



Davon Fleming – “Me and Mrs. Jones” 


When someone comes on and says they are going to sing their face off, it usually paves the way for a horrific audition, but in Davon’s case, it made Blake say “You’re gonna be in the finale.”


The performance was astounding and gave us all the feels, but Davon went with Team Jennifer. That’s a wise move. 


Kathrina Feigh – “Big White Room”


There was something about Kathrina’s opening performance that left a lot to be desired. It was underwhelming, and there were others who did not make a place that probably should have. 


Alas, Jennifer saw some potential and took her under her wing. 



Addison Agen – “Jolene”


This 16-year-old has parents who are very involved in music, so it made sense that it would run in the family. Her voice was great, and she is someone we could imagine making it far. 


She went with Team Miley, and that should be a good fit. 


Adam Pearce – “Hot-Blooded”


This was Adam’s second time on the show. He previously appeared on Season 12 and was let go at his Blind Audition. This time, however, Adam noticed a marked improvement and snapped him up. 



Moriah Formica – “Crazy on You”  


This episode was filled with promising young singers, and 16-year-old Moriah was another solid option. Adam seemed a bit on the fence with her, but Miley knew a good singer when one was in her presence. 


That’s a wrap, you guys. 


The Voice continues tonight on NBC!
