RTV Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 23 minutes ago, TeamAudra said: I just watched her segment on my DVR. That was a really favorable edit for Grace. Grace came across as likable, down-to-earth, and hard-working. Despite not having experience on a big stage, she didn't seem nervous during the audition. On the app, 81% turned for Grace and 96% correctly guessed she would pick Blake as her coach. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She seemed very at ease on stage, in the intro package, and post performance while bantering with the coaches. I sensed no nerves at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTV Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 recap by Mark Franklin Grace West, 19, Kent, Michigan, "Maybe It Was Memphis," by Pam Tillis Grace showed off a great country tone. And the second she hit the chorus, Blake Shelton and Niall Horan turned. Niall called her voice impeccable and predicted people in America will love her. Blake said he hears Pam Tillis in her voice and called her a great female country artist. Grace opted to join Team Blake, completing his final team on The Voice. https://idolchatteryd.com/nariyella-grace-west-dazzle-on-the-voice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) As I rewatch, I think an underrated aspect of this performance is her stage presence. It isn’t always necessary to run around to have command of the stage, and she showed that in this performance. She looked like someone with more experience performing on big stages than she has. That’s something I had actually been wondering about, because In pretty much all of her Nashville gigs, she’s sitting in a chair with her guitar.

QueenKalie Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 It's pretty cool that she chose Maybe It's Memphis because I don't think anyone has done that besides Danielle. When Danielle sang that I was like yup she's winning. So Grace is definitely off to a good start for sure! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTV Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) I'm glad to see Michigan outlets featuring Grace's audition.
