The Voice Playoffs week 3 Jordan Smith

Jordan Smith brought his mom who allowed him to discover music. Adam gave his “Who You Are” by Jessie J. This song represented that it’s okay to be who you are. When he was done, the audience screamed and cheered uncontrollably. Pharrell said it’s remarkable to watch his attention to detail and “people can feel your intention.” He called it “huge and awesome.” Gwen said “it’s hard to speak after that.” She told him that it’s so fun to watch. Coach Adam said in 15 seconds that Jordan is one of the best performers he knows because he “does the impossible” to sing like he does, and does it “with conviction.”

TEAM PHARRELL

Evan McKeel‘s mom said Evan started singing at an early age. Evan sang “Smile” by Nat King Cole while sitting on a stool playing his guitar onstage. Host Carson Daly called it a “timely song selection” and “a good time for that one.” Gwen told Evan it was her favorite, and it was “very, very good.” Blake stated that Evan is such a pro and said it was “huge” that Evan had a girl in an aquarium in the background. Pharrell told Evan he did a great job because it was a “super moment” that Evan “let people in” during this performance.

The Voice playoffs week 3 Madi Davis

Madi Davis‘ move sat in Pharrell’s red ‘Voice chair during Madi’s rehearsal. Pharrell told Madi to “volunteer her spirit” during her performance of song “Love is Blindness” by U2.

Blake pointed-out that Madi’s dad was crying in the audience and called it the best performance of the night.

TEAM BLAKE

The Voice Playoffs week 3 Barrett Baber

Barrett Baber had his wife with him in rehearsal with coach Blake. Barrett chose to sing “Delta Dawn” by Tanya Tucker which he made his own.

Gwen told Barrett he is “manning the stage” and she’s getting to know him every time he gets up there. Adam said he knows when he hears Blake hollering, the knows it was good! Adam thought it was nice to see the “energetic side” of Barrett. Coach Blake called Barrett his biggest night on the show and he made a song that has nothing to do with going to church, took them all to church!

The Voice Playoffs week 3 Zach Seabaugh

Zach Seabaugh has four sisters who all say they get asked about him a lot. Zach’s mom came to his rehearsal. He sang “Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not” by Thompson Square. Of course, all the girls in the audience were screaming like crazy. Gwen told Blake he was cheating by having Zach do that song because he’s a heart-throb, and that should be his first single. Adam mocked girl-screamed, then said Zach has the chops, and he can sing and it “kinda pisses” him off. Blake said Zach has some Elvis in him.

Emily Ann Roberts sang “Why Not Me” by The Judds, produced by coach Blake Shelton. Emily Ann’s dad said she’s been inspired by Ricky Skaggs ever since was a toddler sitting in a car seat. Pharrell told her she’s makes it abundantly clear that she’s singing a classic song and was amazed how she sounds at 17-years-old He called her voice “classic.” Blake, once again, told Emily Ann that she will be around for a very long time.

TEAM GWEN

Korin’s dad told her to “let everyone in your heart.” She sang “Only Hope” by Mandy Moore. Korin wore her hair and outfit that resembled very closely to Gwen’s style. Adam reacted that it’s hard for an artist to find an identity, and he’s proud that she’s making the music in her own way. Pharrell noticed that she wasn’t nervous and she’s being herself. Gwen told her that she’s happy for Korin and she has such a unique sound and is “powerful” with her performance.

The Voice Playoffs week 3 Braiden Sunshine

Braiden Sunshine‘s Dad was at his rehearsal and liked how Gwen connected with Braiden like a mother. Gwen gave Braiden 1980’s song “True” by Spandau Ballet. Gwen said she was going for the young girl audience by giving him the song because it was swoony like Braiden naturally sings. Blake said it’s an odd enough of a song choice and that they pairing of Gwen and Braiden is the greatest thing ever and thought it worked so well. Pharrell was impressed by Braiden’s “crazy” big note and his controlled runs. Coach Gwen was “just blown-away” by Braiden and called it “perfect”.

The Voice Playoffs week 3 Jeffery Austin

Jeffery Austin‘s song was at number nine on the iTunes charts after last week’s show. “I wanted to take a dance Pop song and make it my own,” Jeffery said by singing “Dancing On My Own.” After his performance, Gwen was crying. Adam said that there’s something about Jeffery’s voice that “you can’t teach that unique quality.” Blake was thinking that Jeffery could win and that would make Gwen the first female coach to win.
