Team Kelly 2026: Watch Every Member of Kelly Clarkson’s New Team on ‘The Voice’

Kelly Clarkson is back on “The Voice” season 29. We saw the Blind Auditions on “The Voice” 2026 come to an end last night on NBC. Kelly and her team of 10 talented artists are set to compete in the Battle Rounds on “The Voice” 2026. So, who made it onto Team Kelly for “The Voice: Battle of Champions”? Check out all of the artists below in our “The Voice” spoilers.


Team Kelly: Julia Golden

She’s been watching this show since she was a kid. Julia is now here, and she is emotional to get this moment. For her audition, she sang “Strawberry Wine” by Deana Carter. It’s weird, but with these three coaches, Kelly seems to have the advantage when it comes to country artists. Julia does have a solid voice. She gets John and Kelly to hit their buttons for her.


Team Kelly: Abigayle Oakley

This one starts as a mystery, but after two seconds of singing, all three coaches hit their buttons for Abigayle. She sings “Call Your Girlfriend” by Robyn. This one was good. She was soft and sweet, but her voice was so good.


Team Kelly: Jonah Mayor

He sings with a boy band parody type group. They sing a bunch of boy band songs, but he is not singing a boy band song tonight. He is going big, as he sings the Italian song “Il Mondo” by Jimmy Fontana. Kelly turns around right away for him, and she gets up out of her seat and enjoys the show. Adam joins her later on for this stellar performance. His voice is big and strong.


Team Kelly: Liv Ciara

She auditioned during season 28, but didn’t get any coaches to turn for her. She said she’s been working hard since then to come back and get a chair turned. Now, she is back for season 29 and hoping to get one of these coaches to turn for her.

For her audition, she sings “we can’t be friends (wait for your love)” by Ariana Grande. That hard work has been paying off (and probably better song choice), as she gets Kelly and Adam to hit their button for her. She hits a big note towards the end that I thought would get John to turn, but no luck.


Team Kelly: Aaron LaVigne

He has been working on Broadway, but he wants to pursue a solo career. He said the stakes are high tonight. Aaron sings “Feels Like The First Time” by Foreigner. I think he has a good voice, and clearly does if he is starring on Broadway. However, I think this was a bad song choice for him. It’s slow, but he hits some big notes at the end and gets Kelly and John to turn for him.


Team Kelly: JW Griffin

JW Griffin delivers bread for his job. Lots of bread puns. His passion isn’t delivering bread, but it’s delivering music. For his audition, he sings “Long Haired Country Boy” by Charlie Daniels. And yes, this is a country boy. He has such a solid voice and sounds good on this one. He gets a Triple Turn, so that battle is on.


Team Kelly: Tia Durant

She is having some trouble shooting her pre-video. Tia is a small-town girl with big-town dreams. Out of high school, she got a banking job. She wanted to help people in other ways, so she quit and pursued her dreams of singing.

For her audition, she sings “Midnight Train to Georgia” by Gladys Knight & The Pips. I mean, I fell in love with her first note. She has such a soulful voice, and it’s so entertaining. However, the coaches took a little longer. Kelly and Adam hit later for her.


Team Kelly: Blaire Elbert

She has been singing since she was 5 years old. She was part of a girl group called Cactus Girls. However, they parted ways, and she’s been pursuing her solo music career. For her audition, she sings “Wide Rollin’ Plains.” She doesn’t get much action, but then she starts yodeling and gets Kelly to turn for her. No one else turns for her.


Team Kelly: Houston Kelly

He is a southern boy living in Memphis. He said he would love to be coached by Adam Levine or Kelly Clarkson. Houston performs with a band. He’s singing his grandfather’s favorite song for these Blind Auditions. His grandpa passed away on the day he found out he was coming for this audition.

For his performance, he sings “Walking In Memphis” by Marc Cohn. He has a very strong voice and is having fun up there. I was surprised no one was turning for him, but he got Kelly to turn for him at the last second.


Team Kelly: McKinley Brown

She is singing “Teenage Dreams” by Katy Perry for her audition, but making it her own. She definitely has a solid voice and that indie-style voice. She did make it her own, but then it’s a little shaky at times for me. However, she got all three coaches to turn for her, and it’s another Triple Turn.

We learn more about Mikenley, who performs with her dad right now. She said she was bullied in middle school, which made her lose her light and brightness, but here she is!

Do you think Team Kelly has the winner of “The Voice” season 29 on it?
