The Voice - Night 3 auditions

Tonight was night 3 of the blind Voice auditions. There were some really good voices and performers tonight. This season looks to be highly competitive!

Sarah Golden went first. She had a nice voice, Cee Lo & Blake turned. Cee Lo won.

Elley Duhe was next. We saw that she has very supportive parents which is always a great thing. She has a good voice but still needs work. She picked a bad song to showcase her voice and style and unfortunately no one turned.

Next up was Pip. Yes, you read that right, his name was P-i-p, Pip! He was very good voice. All the coaches turned and fought for him. Adam won. I think that is a real good fit for both.

Next was Erin Willet who we saw had great support from her dad. Unfortunately we also found out that he was suffering from stage 4 pancreatic cancer. She showed a real strong voice with lots of style. Blake only turned. I was happy for her that she got to share a success with her Dad since I recently read that was the last performance he would see as he has since passed away. :(

David Grace sang Sweet Home Alabama which is a really tough song to do since you have to do something different with it to make it stand out from all the high profile versions out there. Unfortunately he just had an ok audition. No one turned although Blake almost did.

Katrina Parker showed off a very good voice and a special quality to her tone and phrasing. Surprisingly, only Adam turned.

Geoff McBride showed he had a good voice and performing style. Xtina & Cee Lo turned. Xtina won.

I didn't like Erin Martin's voice. Just not my preference but Blake & Cee lo turned. Cee Lo won.

James Massone has an interesting voice. All but adam turned. Cee Lo won.

Winter Rae (awesome name!) has a tattooed rocker look but is an R&B singer which is quite interesting. Unfortunately she didn't make a good song choice to show her range. No one turned.

Chris Cauley did an ok audition of Bruno Mars' Grenade but Cee Lo & Adam turned. Adam won.

Then we got some quick auditions and who the coaches picked. Nathan Parrett got Adam as his coach. Brian Fuente got Blake. Moses Stone, the first MC to tryout got Xtina to coach him. That should be interesting.

The last contestant of the night was Jordis Unga. I was a big fan of hers when she was a contestant on Rock Star INXS. She looked different but she still has that great voice. I was really happy to see her in the spotlight again. Blake won her on his team.

Great night of singing and talent!
