She’s a true artist and has a unique blend of skills that make her an asset to anyone’s team.

The first artist of the night was Dustin Christensen, who has plenty of experience but is looking to take his career to the next level. “Your brilliant moments were so brilliant that I have to be part of it”, said Adam Levine. Williams held out a little longer before he eventually pushed his button and gave Christensen a four-chair turnaround. However, Pharrell found his tone to be similar to American musician John Mellencamp and Blake believed that his voice is similar to Neil Diamond. He ended up being the second-to-last singer on Team Blake.
A Baldwin County teenager shows she has major talent when it comes to singing after prompting all four judges to turn around during the blind auditions of “The Voice” on Monday night. Check out her full performance of the 1995 hit above.
The Soulful Tattooed Barber with the Drug Free Heart of Gold picks Adam, which is fortunate, because if he had joined Team Blake, he would have just been “Dustin #2”.
Chase Kerby, who works in a candy store owned by his mother, sang “The Scientist” by Coldplay next. “That’s pretty good”, Shelton said of Schappell’s twangin’ “Strawberry Wine”, perhaps providing extra impetus for the two coaches still in play to turn. The coaches enjoyed his creative take, but they did not hear something that made any of them want to turn. But, you can’t deny that it allows singers to show off a huge range, which little Shelby Brown did just well.
Shelby Brown sang “Stars” by Grace Potter on The Voice 2015 Season 9 Blind Auditions, earning for herself four chairs. Fans have been waiting for Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani to reveal if they are really dating or if they are just friends. Blake and Adam go toe-to-toe over the performer, and it’s Adam who scores another team member. Hopefully, he won’t forget it once the Battles come around.
Adam mocked his fellow judge – picking up one of the pictures and pretending to be him as he said: ‘I’m a stupid idiot, vote for me’.
Amy Vachal auditioned next. Vachal grew up surrounded by music, and her dad was even in a Grateful Dead cover band.
Pharrell insisted he only failed to buzz as she is too similar to someone already on his team, telling her: “The good news is you are really incredible”.
Rumors have been flying about Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani for a while now. She was the final performance of this show and the final slot on team Pharrell. Blake Shelton also noted that he’d assembled a collection of singers in a variety of genres – country, pop, rock.
Caroline Burns gave it her all for the very last spot on season nine. “It’s awesome how quickly life can turn around for you. It gets you everyone standing up and clapping for you”, says Pharrell. The 16-year-old looked visibly nervous as she tackled Ed Sheeran’s “Photograph”. She got Pharrell’s attention, and he turned to make her the final addition to his team.
The coaches were impressed by Schappell’s effortless vocal performance, with Levine even commenting it sounded like it was sprinkled with pixie dust.
