Her audition: Caity Peters, 21, of Long Beach, Calif., audtioned with a stripped-down version of Nick Jonas’ “Jealous.” By the end of the first verse, Pharrell Williams and Christina Aguilera were facing in her direction. Near the end of the song, Blake Shelton and Adam Levine turned as well, giving Caity the first four-chair turn of Season 10. Pharrell praised the intensity in her performance. Caity decided to join Team Pharrell.
His background: She calls herself the “black sheep” of her family because she’s decided to pursue music as part of a family in which her father and brother are lawyers, one sister is a nurse and another sister is leaning toward the medical field. “My parents have always wanted me on the path of college and a career,” she says, “but I’ve always gravitated toward anything that was associated with music.” But by the end of high school, she says she convinced her parents to let her go to the Young Americans Performing Arts College. It’s a nonprofit foundation that inspires kids through music. That allowed her to travel the world performing for kids. She’s now studying to be a music teacher and serving as a church worship leader. But she’s still looking for a chance to be heard as a singer and says she prefers R&B and soulful music.
