Is this her year? Keep reading to see who is left on Team Gwen:

Texas-born, Germany-raised Rose Short worked at a maximum-security male prison before launching a career as a full-time singer, songwriter, and performer. As a kid, some of her first performances took place at the military basis her father was stationed, while she also gave shows at church choirs and theatres. Is there an audience Rose can't win over? We have yet to find out.

Renowned for her sassy, masculine style and bold headwear choices — a fiery red cowboy hat has to be the best thing a singer has worn since Prince's open-chest, ruffle-trimmed jackets — Myracle astonished viewers week after week with her fierce looks and even more powerful voice.

Frequently posing with a frail daisy or sunflower loosely stuck in his hair — it's never a violet, please someone explain — James Violet earned renown as the laid-back, happy-go-lucky singer to deliver some absolute anthems. A voracious, unstoppable musician with enormous dreams, James took saxophone, ukulele, guitar, and piano classes before he'd have finished high school. Talk about ambition.

As a young boy, Brennen had the bad fortune of witnessing first-hand the devastating impact of the Flint water crisis. Following his father's advice, Brennen began performing in a bid to inspire the increasingly disenfranchised community, and he hasn't stopped since.

Jessie had his first breakthrough as a performer during his early adolescent, when he was accepted to a performing arts school near his hometown of Newark, NJ before he gained the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of performing at the Apollo Theatre. 

Unfortunately, not everything went to plan, and Jessie's early successes didn't lead to a steady career. Having struggled with homelessness for years, Jessie is now joining The Voice to show the world how fantastic a musician he really is.

While his icy-blue eyes and trademark blonde bob could easily confuse anybody — and lead them to think that Jake HaldenVang is perhaps the fifth member of The Blue, or a distant cousin of David Beckham —the thirty-something is actually a die-hard classic rock music and blues fan.

Indianapolis-born, Nashville-based Kyndal found escape in music since the very early years of her childhood. Raised by troubled parents, the young girl often found herself vulnerable and abandoned, and sought refuge in the art form. Her obsession with singing grew only stronger with the years, and now the part-time nanny is showing her voice off on The Voice.
