Country singer Morgan Myles had her finest efficiency thus far on The Voice throughout Top 10 night time along with her rendition of “Tennessee Whiskey,” which most lately had been on the charts as carried out by Chris Stapleton.
It was the night time that followers chosen songs for the artists to carry out and Morgan’s followers undoubtedly acquired it proper as a result of the 35-year-old from Nashville sees herself following in Chris’ footsteps as a feminine nation soul artist.
“Everybody in Nashville knew Chris Stapleton but the performance that broke him was the one at the CMAs with Justin Timberlake,” she informed Parade in a Zoom interview after the present. “I remember watching that and going, ‘finally this country soul lane is about to blow up and I belong there,’ so the fact that that slot in country music still has not been filled by a female, I’m hoping the fans just laid it out for everybody to be like, ‘Knock, knock, knock! Hello, this is it,’ because I belong there.”
As a results of performing a tune in her pure habitat, Morgan was stellar, and she or he wasn’t alone in her estimate that it’s the place she belongs. Coach John Legend informed her, “I honestly thought about it, and it was like an awards show performance. I really did feel that when I was watching you perform. I think you’ve been one of the most gifted vocalists throughout this competition. I loved seeing you full in your element today. It felt like you were up there doing exactly what you were supposed to be doing.”

As to John’s critique, Morgan could be very a lot conscious that it’s an enormous compliment.
“Obviously, you’d hope that I was giving off that [awards show] vibe because the stage at The Voice and the production values went up a notch, especially this week, musically, production wise, and digitally. Basically what The Voice provides is this stage that feels very awards show-esque but what the coaches said about me holding that up just speaks so much to me on every level. Again, just hearing these four coaches say stuff like that, you’re just like, ‘What is life right now?’ I really feel so honored.”
The hope is that Morgan returns to Nashville and may flip the feedback into actual life. It doesn’t harm that Blake Shelton agreed with John, saying, “I give you an ovation. It’s incredible.”

Morgan was a four-chair flip and had the chance to hitch Team Blake, however she went to Team Camila Cabello to strive one thing new. And she is aware of she made the fitting determination. Still, it helps when Blake has a constructive response to her efficiency.
“I obviously absolutely respect Blake on every level,” Morgan informed Parade. “He represents my life, my history, and everything, so I need to hear that from him. He’s the GOAT [greatest of all time], so it does mean a lot to me. I’m always sitting on pins and needles for what Blake’s going to say because he knows country music through and through and I know that he knows, so you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh. What’s he going to say?’ because he’s still a part of who I am in my community in Nashville and my industry and all the things that I know, so anything coming from him, I put a lot of weight on despite the fact that I didn’t pick him as a coach.”
The Voice airs Monday and Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
