Devix performs Glass Animals’ “Heat Waves”

Born in Queens, this 28-year-old singer currently resides in Pennsylvania and offered a shoutout to their mother who couldn’t attend the audition due to challenges with cerebral palsy. The obstacles didn’t get in their way though as John, Camila, and Gwen all turned their chairs. Ultimately, Devix picked Team Camila.

Chello sings Grover Washington Jr. & Bill Withers’ “Just the Two of Us”

Hailing from Pennsylvania, 22-year-old Chello’s real name is Marcello and he was joined by their best friends who they describe as brothers, Emanuel and Justin. Despite being a remote customer service rep in his day-to-day life, Chello hopes to become the musical artist he’s always dreamed about on The Voice. Thankfully, John and Camila agree as they both turned their chairs. When it came to picking his path, Chello chose Team Camila.

Kevin Hawkins performs Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely”

A seventh and eighth-grade piano teacher from Dallas, Texas, Kevin earned a four-chair turn for his unbelievable audition. But Kevin only got to select his team from three of the judges as Gwen used her Block to prevent her fellow coach John from recruiting the performer. In the end, Kevin surprised the coaches by choosing Team Blake.

Sadie Bass sings Keith Urban’s “Stupid Boy”

Originally from Michigan, 25-year-old Sadie now resides in Nashville where she has been trying to pursue her dream of becoming a singer.

A 6-foot-4 athlete from Michigan, Brayden brought forth a mature sound despite being 15 years old. His performance was captivating enough to get Camila to encourage Blake’s seat turn. As the only turning coach, the country expert welcomed Brayden to Team Blake with open arms. And once the other coaches got a peek at Brayden they were all jealous that they didn’t turn themselves.

Peyton Aldridge sings The Marshall Tucker Band’s “Can’t You See”

This 25-year-old assistant coach from Cleveland, Mississippi is hoping to hit it big, but can’t help reflecting on the people who got him to where he is, particularly his stepfather who he acknowledges during the audition process. Following his rendition of “Can’t You See,” Peyton earned chair spins from John, Gwen, and Blake, the latter of which was prevented from participating because John used his Block on him. In the end, Peyton chose Team Legend.
