Two more singers earned the coveted four-chair turn-arounds on The Voice Tuesday night. And both wound up joining Team Adam Levine, who is certainly stockpiling a squad capable of ending Blake Shelton’s Voice winning streak at three seasons. The latest four-chair turn acquisitions for Adam include James Irwin, a 31-year-old rocker who tried out in…
Monika Leigh had just finished an impressive bluesy rendition of “The Thrill is Gone” on The Voice. And three coaches were facing in her direction, hoping she’d join their team.
So, I checked iTunes at noon to see how the artists from audition episode number three of The Voice were doing. There wasn’t much to check.
The debut album from Season 12 winner Candice Glover has been delayed again. Folks anxiously awaiting that album will now have to wait until Feb. 18, 2014, 19 Entertainment/Interscope Records announced Monday.

Well, all four judges were facing in her direction before she completed the chorus the first time. Adam Levine told her she “could easily win The Voice this year.” Countered Blake: “It’s very hard to win this show,…

By the end of the song, so had the other three judges, making Holly one of only two singers to earn a four-chair turn-around on the second night of auditions. Her genuinely awestruck reaction to that…
