The Voice Recap: Grace Bello, Austin Montgomery — Blind Auditions

As The Voice’s Blind Auditions neared their conclusion Tuesday evening, Season 22 was beginning to form up, with every of the coaches’ groups having not less than one standout on its roster. (Assume Workforce John Legend’s Morgan Taylor, Workforce Gwen Stefani’s Daysia, Workforce Camila Cabello’s Andrew Igbokidi and Workforce Blake Shelton’s bodie). Have been any new frontrunners added to the pack on Night time 6? Learn on, and we’ll focus on.

Austin Montgomery (Workforce Blake), “I Can’t Assist It (If I’m Nonetheless in Love With You)” — Grade: B | This baby-faced previous soul could have, as he put it, “achieved nothing” music-wise earlier than The Voice, however that didn’t cease him from giving such robust Elvis Presley vibes along with his baritone that he earned himself a three-chair flip. Presumably the best coach collection of the season.

Dia Malai (Workforce Legend), “Actual Love” — Grade: C | Man, I want this Queens 26-year-old sounded as cool as she regarded. She actually had some robust moments throughout her efficiency, the place you have been like, “Yeah, she’s acquired it.” However then the one-chair flip so usually sounded not sure that you just have been additionally like, “Hmm, does she know what to do with it?”

Benny Weag (Workforce Blake), “Shivers” — Grade: C | Possibly Benny deserved higher than a C — his coach preferred his tone and pocket — however we actually heard about 10 seconds of his audition. (Sure, I went again and timed it.) So who can say for positive?

Jillian Jordyn (Workforce Gwen), “Points” — Grade: C | Gotta suppose that Gwen will come to remorse her early chair flip for this 17-year-old. (Or jettison her within the Battles.) It’s comprehensible, in fact, that Jillian would get flustered at seeing Gwen and John’s faces swivel ’spherical. However it’s worrisome her efficiency in the end felt extra like she was forcing it on us than giving it to us.

Grace Bello (Workforce Camila), “Ghost” — Grade: A | “Haunting” might be the very best phrase to explain this 21-year-old’s Justin Bieber cowl; it simply occurs to be punny, too. As John famous, the four-chair flip went delicate and nuanced somewhat than large and bombastic, permitting us to listen to how good she was somewhat than simply how loud she may very well be.
