During a pair of conference calls last week, singers from The Voice shared their thoughts about the battle round experience. Here are some of the highlights from those two calls. Also on the calls were three singers who advanced, but had their battle round matches montaged, meaning we saw only a few seconds of the…
Siahna Im was just 15 when she auditioned for Season 9 of The Voice and turned three chairs with her cover of “Fever.” A year later, she’s back with her debut single “Warrior,” released late last month through Arena Music.
