Nine more singers earned spots on The Voice as the show continued its Season 28 auditions Monday night.
Two young female singers turned four chairs.
Sadie Dahl closed the show and joined Team Snoop Dogg, giving him a pair of four-chair turns so far. He landed Ralph Edwards on the season premiere.
Niall Horan, who used his block to try to land Sadie, didn’t come away empty handed.
He convinced country singer Kayleigh Clark to join his team. That gives him three four-chair turns so far this season, more than any other coach.
Here’s a recap of Monday’s show.
Editor’s Note: The links attached to the names below will take you to a profile of each singer and information about music they’ve already released. Most of the artists on Season 28 already have music out.
BEST OF THE NIGHT
Sadie Dahl, 19, Draper, Utah, “Colors” by Black Pumas: Sadie’s soulful delivery made an immediate impression with the coaches. Niall Horan and Michael Buble turned almost immediately. Reba McEntire and Snoop Dogg later followed, giving Sadie a four-chair turn. Snoop said he could hear pop, R&B and soul influences in her voice. Reba called her audition mesmorizing and said she could win the show. As for Niall, he blocked Michael in hopes of landing Sadie for himself. The move didn’t work. Sadie opted to join Team Snoop.
RUNNERS-UP
Cori Kennedy, 28, Kasson, Minn., “Why Not Me” by The Judds: Cori immediately shows off a wonderful country voice. Before she hits the chorus, Reba McEntire and Michael Buble turn. Cori has a nice little rasp in her voice too and plenty of vocal firepower. But the other coaches stay put. Cori then graces the coaches with an original about appearing on The Voice. And it’s quite clever. Reba complimented Cori’s power and her tone. Michael said she sounds like a mix of country and Stevie Nicks. Cori opts to join Team Reba.
Kayleigh Clark, 20, Sumrall, Mississippi, “Stay” by Sugarland: Kayleigh’s strong opening earns her a quick chair turn from Snoop Dogg. As Kayleigh continues a heartfelt delivery, every other coach turns as well. Reba called her audition wonderful. Snoop dared her to be different and pick him as a coach. Niall said Kayleigh’s unique vocals gave him goosebumps and he could tell she’s also a songwriter from her delivery. Kayleigh joined Team Niall in a bit of a shocker.
ALSO MADE THE SHOW
Revel Day, 31, Calif., “Somewhere Only We Know” by Keane: Revel has nice range and gets quick chair turns from Michael Buble and Niall Horan. His voice soars after that, enticing a chair turn from Reba McEntire as well. Niall complimented his strong opening and the fact that he sang an indie song. Reba liked his big, round voice. Michael praised his vocal control. With his wife providing an assist, Revel decided to join Team Niall.
Natalia Albertini, 24, Cherry Hill, N.J., “Out Here On My Own” by Irene Cara: A really pretty opening earns an almost immediate chair turn from Snoop Dogg. Natalia shows off a nice soulful tone as the song progresses. Reba turns as well. Snopp loved her combination of R&B and pop. Both Michael and Niall regretted not turning. Reba praised Natalia’s “God-given talent.” Natalia decided to join Team Snoop.
Marty O’Reilly, 36, Sonoma, Calif., “Trouble” by Ray LaMontagne: Marty displays a great singer-songwriter voice and a nice rasp. But he’s well into the song before anyone turns. Wow, a bit surprised by that. Then Niall Horan, Michael Buble and Snoop Dogg do so in rapid fashion. Niall loved the rasp and character in this voice. Michael loved his character voice as well and put Niall into a penalty box to keep him from speaking more. The ploy might have worked. Marty decided to join Team Michael.
Daron Lameek, 35, Queens, N.Y., “All Night Long” by Lionel Richie: Daron’s joyful delivery of the classic tune earned chair turns from Michael Buble and Reba McEntire. Hey,, and check that out: Daron has been performing with The Commodores. Reba called his audition “wonderful” and said he’s a great singer with a great look. Michael said Daron was so impressive, he feared he’d be blocked. Daron decided to join Team Reba.
Rob Cole, 34, Pembroke, “Joy of My Life” by Chris Stapleton: Rob, who failed to turn a chair in Season 25, is back for a second try at The Voice, saying he’s been performing relentlessly since then. He delivers a solid vocal from the first note. He gets quick chair turns from Reba McEntire and Michael Buble. And then came the surprise: Michael blocked Reba, knowing his odds of landing a country artist like Rob would drop dramatically if he had to battle her. Niall Horan and Snoop Dogg complimented Rob’s audition as well.
Aarik Duncan, 38, Raleigh, N.C., “Birds of a Feather” by Billie Eilish: Interesting song choice. Aarik sounded very nervous on the opening, but the performance got stronger as the song went on. Michael Buble turned midway through and winds up getting Aarik for his team since he was the only coach to turn. Michael said Aarik has the type of voice you’d immediately recognize on the radio. And he reminded Aarik that he just won the show with a one-chair turn.
