Idol Chatter & Voice Views

New post-Voice music includes EPs from Jaclyn Lovey and Britton Buchanan and a single from Carolina Rial.

Here’s a bit about each of those releases.

The links take you to the songs on Apple Music.

Jaclyn Lovey from The Voice Season 14

* Jaclyn Lovey from Season 14 has released an impressive six-song EP called “Pink Lemonade.” It features a duet called “Better Days” with Britton Buchanan, that season’s runner-up. Jaclyn serves up absolute standouts with “San Francisco” and “Best Mistake.” Jaclyn says she created the latter with Elijay Munck “for you to scream-sing to your absolute bestie, your ride or die.”

Britton Buchanan from The Voice Season 14

* Speaking of Britton Buchanan, he released a song called “Grace Kelly” on Friday. He says he’s always been enchanted with the 1950s screen siren, who later became Princess of Monaco. And he always wanted to be James Dean. So he decided to write a song about them. On Apple Music, he’s packaged the new song with three previous singles — “Say the Word,” “Taking Pictures” and “Better” as a Grace Kelly EP.

Carolina Rial from The Voice Season 20

* Carolina Rial from Season 20 released “Headache” on Friday. Written with her manager Jamison, it marks the first original since the show for Carolina. Writes Carolina, in a quite timely message: “Not everything u see on social media is perfection in real life.” Carolina’s previous 2021 release was a cover of her blind audition song, “Stay With Me.”
