Ep 3. The Blind Auditions, Part 3

The Voice season 7 continues with episode 3, "The Blind Auditions, Part 3." This episode features more hopeful singers taking to the stage in hopes of impressing the coaches and earning a spot on their teams. As always, the contestants will be performing for the coaches without the benefit of being seen - it's all about the voice!

The episode kicks off with a dramatic montage of previous auditions, showcasing the range of talent that has already come through the doors. The coaches - Adam Levine, Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Williams, and Blake Shelton - share their thoughts on the competition and the high level of talent they have already seen.

The first contestant to take the stage in this episode is an aspiring country singer named Colton Smith. Hailing from Kentucky, Colton has a classic country voice that he hopes will impress Blake Shelton. He chooses to sing the classic Merle Haggard song "Silver Wings," and although the coaches seem to be enjoying his performance, they are slow to turn their chairs. In the end, Blake is the only one to turn, and Colton joins his team.

Next up is a young singer-songwriter named Madilyn Paige. This Utah native has already gained a following on YouTube, and she hopes to take her career to the next level on The Voice. She chooses to perform the Lorde hit "Team," and her soft, understated delivery catches the attention of Pharrell Williams. He is the only coach to turn his chair, and he is thrilled to have Madilyn on his team.

The third audition of the episode comes from a unique duo called Nico & Vinz. These Norwegian artists have already had a hit with the song "Am I Wrong," and they hope to introduce their music to a new audience in the United States. They perform their hit song for the coaches, showcasing their impressive harmonies and high-energy performance. Although all four coaches seem to enjoy the performance, they are hesitant to turn their chairs for fear of not being able to provide the right kind of support for a duo. In the end, Adam and Pharrell both turn, and Nico & Vinz must choose between the two teams.

The remaining auditions in the episode continue to showcase a diverse range of talent, from a gospel singer to a pop singer with a unique vibrato. The coaches are faced with tough decisions as they try to build the strongest teams possible, and the competition is fierce.

Throughout the episode, the coaches banter with each other and offer advice to the contestants, sharing their thoughts on what it takes to make it in the music industry. They are all passionate about the talent they have seen and are eager to help their team members succeed.

As the episode comes to a close, the coaches reflect on the talent they have added to their teams, and the excitement of the upcoming battles begins to build. The Blind Auditions may be over, but the battle for The Voice is just beginning.
