Ain't No Rest for the Wicked

She was good and she seems about ready for the show despite being 16. I agree with TA above though - she's just a few years away from being very good.

Not a song choice I was anticipating for her...

First up is Anaya Cheyenne. For those who don't know, she was on the shortlist for last season and actually revealed on reveal day, but then took that post down. Guess we know why now!

For those of y'all not watching from the US - Daylight Savings Time is a thing, our clocks moved ahead one hour, so the show is about to begin.

Yeah, I love how she has a ton of love on here already but she hasn't posted since reveal day looool

Posted just before you but Michael and Cam appear to both be on tonight as well. At least we know Zan avoids the montage because John only has 2 names tonight. For montages, there was a clip of JDM cheering after his performance backstage, so I think we'll see his performance in full.

Kelly: JULES, Mandi Thomas Nick: Jacob Miller John: Mike Jerel, Zan Fiskum Blake: Cam Spinks, Jon Mullins Unplaced: Anaya Cheyenne, Gigi Hess, Jacob Daniel Murphy, Michael Williams No-chair: Jared Harper If these are the 11 names for tonight, the lineup for the last week of blinds is: Anders Drerup, Brittney Allen (J), Cedrice Webber(J), Kailey Abel (B), Kevin Farris(N), Mandi Castillo (J), Micah Iverson (K), Roderick Chambers

Just wanted to confirm that a person connected to Zan Fiskum confirmed that she will be on tonight.

Yeah, we'll definitely get 1-2 of them. I'm guessing Zan and Brittney tonight, with Brittney maybe being a montage/clipped contestant and Mandi for next week because Mandi's at least somewhat active on Instagram and she might've posted that she's on this week already. Zan and Brittney barely post anything period.

Regarding this, Gigi is definitely tomorrow and Michael Williams has begun heavily hinting he’s tomorrow as well. Confirming at least 9 for tomorrow - possibly another few with a montage mixed in since that would leave 10 names for the final episode.

I'm excited for her, too. Shame she was the last audition so we have to keep waiting. While we don't know who Kelly's save is - we know her team going into PO's so far consists of: -Megan Danielle -Micah Iverson -Cedrice Webber (KO steal) -winner of Mandi Thomas/unknown fellow battle winner - female I'd guess Mandi/Samantha with Samantha having a slight edge at being the 4th spot over Mandi, but I think that puts Cedrice in a good spot for a PV if they do 2 contestants per coach again. Megan hasn't shown she's good enough for a PV yet, Micah doesn't strike me as a strong contender since the source preferred Tayler and said even the other coaches thought Tayler should've won that KO. Cedrice has a good chance at being in the top 2 for her team with a good performance (which she's undoubtedly very capable of giving). I'd assume Samantha (if she wins her battle and KO) would get the other spot.

None of the confirmed names jump out to me as people I’ve anxiously been waiting to hear, but I always try to stay optimistic. Even though some episodes flop pretty much entirely, the unexpectedly great auditions that for some reason don’t get 4 chair turns tend to keep me excited (I’ve been repeating Zach, Tayler, and Joei’s auditions a lot) If Michael Williams and Mandi Castillo confirm, we can get both of the Jacobs, Mandis, and Mike/Michaels in the same episode though lol.

Promo + Mandi Thomas says: Kelly: JULES, Mandi Thomas Nick: Jacob Miller John: Mike Jerel, Blake: Jon Mullins Unplaced: Anaya Cheyenne, Jacob Daniel Murphy It also seems like Jared Harper will air, but he’s a no-chair -Gigi Hess is hinting she’s Monday -Kevin Farris and Cedrice (last blind) confirmed they won’t air until 3/16 -All 4 of John’s female contestants are yet to air so we’ll get 1-2 on Monday -No news yet from: Anders Drerup, Brittney Allen, Cam Spinks, Kailey Abel, Mandi Castillo, Micah Iverson, Michael Williams, Roderick Chambers, Zan Fiskum

With Mike, they’ve aired all 6 of John’s guys and 0 of his girls.

Really good. John’s team is STACKED. Reminder that of Nelson, Darious, Zach, and Mike (and Brittney), only 2 of them are moving on to KO’s with John and only 1 of them is going to lives on his team unscathed. *Nick’s battle steal is still open, as is John’s save

Tomorrow morning. Give it around 15 hours?

Still a few open spots for the week, but we know JULES and Jacob Miller lost their battle and KO, respectively. I don't anticipate JDM and Anaya went too far, I have my own theory about Jon, and Mike is still completely up in the air. So "potential" fodder week might be apt. I imagine we'll get Mandi as the next 4 chair turn this week.

Watched the promo for next week (sorry about saying Michael was on last week - confused him and Hawk) and it gave us a lot of faces. Next week will have: -Anaya Cheyenne -Jacob Daniel Murphy -Jacob Miller (Nick) -Jon Mullins (presumed Blake) -JULES (Kelly) -Mike Jerel (John) -Jared Harper (no chair turns)

His audition was more classic rock than metal, but he's definitely a bit more metal than classic rock outside of the show:

I wouldn't even mind tbh. I'm down for a genuine classic rocker to win a competition like this for once.

1. Thunderstorm Artis (9.5/10) - Easily the strongest audition of the season so far. Should be interesting to see how far he goes. That final note was beautifully executed and left me wanting more. 2. Samuel Wilco (9/10) - This was the surprise of the night for me! He's got a voice that deserves to go far. I don't have any real complaints here. 3. Allegra Miles (8.5/10) - Great job overall, but her enunciation needs a ton of work. An interesting performer and I hope she goes far. 4. Joei Fulco (8/10) - I was a bit more critical of this watching it as it aired, but her tone is actually very lovely. Bonus points for the song - I didn't ever expect to hear this song on here but some Cher never hurt anyone, did it? Hope she goes pretty far. 5. Samantha Howell (8/10) - I liked some parts better than others, but it was a consistent performance. 6. Sara Collins (7.5/10) - Beautiful high notes, but inconsistent throughout. I heard a weaker version of Miley Cyrus in her. 7. CammWess (7/10) - I liked this better watching it on air than on the re-listen on Youtube. So many of the runs were unnecessary and it just became a bit irritating towards the end. Hope John helps him control it better. 8. Jamal Corrie (6/10) - I wanted to like him a lot because I'd seen some of his street performances on Youtube before the season began, but he was nervous and had a weird song, in my opinion. It wasn't the best first impression but I'd love to see him prove people wrong. Hawk McIntyre (4.5/10) - As far as bad performances go, I don't think this was dreadful or anything. It just never went anywhere. I think his voice is super close and if he'd chosen a different song, he could've been a chair turner. Clerida (3/10) - The performance sadly just never came together. The cello was lovely but the song was all wrong for that. I must say though, I love her tone. Hope she considers coming back. Ruby G (2/10) - A song I've been dying to have performed on the show, but this was tragic.

Samuel as a 4 chair was a guess based on a promo that showed a deep voice picking Nick and showing it was a 4-chair turn. It was probably edited differently or it might be another contestant whose team we're not sure of yet (like Roderick) After seeing his audition tonight, it's definitely a bit of a bummer. The source said the Arei/Samuel battle was pretty even, so it was probably just bad timing. That's my thinking as well.
