Joelle Moses

Joelle has already flirted with the music industry recording demo vocals for the likes of Rihanna, Gabriella Cilmi and Toni Braxton. After her amazing Blind Audition, it’s clear that her vocals demand more of the spotlight.

Jenny Jones

Jenny began singing at church, until her Dad introduced her to the pub gig circuit as a teenager. Then he had to attend all of her gigs down the local. Shame, that…

Jaz Ellington

With a name like Jaz and a voice like velvet, this man has everything in place to become the next vocal phenomenon.

Jay Norton

Jay had feared ridicule at an all-boys school so much that he had kept his awesome voice a secret.

J Marie Cooper

Feisty singer J Marie might be small in stature, but she is quite the vocal force to be reckoned with.

Heshima Thompson

Heshima is what we like to call a ‘triple threat’. This isn’t to say you should be shaking in your boots, we mean he is disturbingly talented – he can act, dance and, most importantly, he can sing.

Frances Wood

Frances’s talent first became apparent at the age of four, when she got up on stage at a holiday park and astounded an audience with a rendition of The Spice Girls’ hit ‘Stop’.

Vince Kidd

The Voice couldn’t give a monkey’s what you look like, which is perfect for someone who’s constantly judged for how they dress.

Toni Warne

Despite having sung in a gospel choir for years, Toni Warne lacked confidence. Throw in some superstar coaches and a huge live audience, and you’ve got a pretty daunting task on your hands…
