The Voice UK 2019 returned tonight for its fourth round of blind auditions.
Here’s a full recap of all the performances, and who got through on which team.
Global music legends will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Tom Jones and Olly Murs are this year’s coaches and on a quest to uncover the best vocal talent that Britain has to offer. Once again, this year’s winner scooping a life changing record contract with Polydor Records.
As always, the first stage is the blind auditions where the contestants must hold their nerve as they sing to the backs of the coaches. After the first three weeks, Team Jennifer and Team Tom lead the way with five acts while Team Will and Team Olly had four acts apiece.
Hoping to pick up the best singing talent, if the coaches like what they hear, they hit their buzzer to spin around and select that artist for their line up. If more than one spins then it’s up to the act to pick which team to join.
But if all the coaches fail to turn for an act they lose their right to see them. The act leaves stage immediately and the judges are left forever wondering if they should have hit their buttons.
Here’s how the fourth round of blind auditions went down tonight…
