Remember the voice that made Blake Shelton block Adam Levine in the premiere of The Voice season 14? Yes, that’s the contestant Britton Buchanan from the show’s latest season who has been ruling the hearts of judges and the viewers over and over again.

Early Life details

Britton Buchanan was born on January 7, 2000, in Sanford, Carolina. He is a son of Shannon and Todd Buchanan and has a little brother, Dawson. Currently, he is a senior at Lee County High School.

Unlike many boys, Britton preferred to pick flowers in the outfield when subjected to playing the game. Leaving sports far behind, he went on to start playing guitar after his parents brought him one. His growing interest in music has a lot to do with his parents, as they introduced him to the 70s and 80s rock and folk music.

Starting off playing guitar at the young age of 8, he started singing publicly by 12. He started tuning the piano at the age of 14. He has participated in numerous talent shows in his hometown of North Carolina. He mostly sang in the Sanford areas and had even sung the national anthem at the Durham Bulls game twice.

Mann and Ethan Ross. With the band, he completed an online original song competition named Band4Good and made to the finals and won the best in their genre of Soul and Rock.

Britton stormed into The Voice auditions in its 14th season with the “Trouble” by Ray LaMontagne. The bold husky voice made him conquer the hearts of Blake Shelton, Alicia Keys, and Adam Levine to turn their tables except Kelly Clarkson.

However, Blake blocked Adam from recruiting Britton initially with the button. That somehow stopped him to go in Team Adam, as Adam has been his inspiration. Despite Blake’s block, he picked Alicia Keys as his coach. The block on Adam might or might not have affected his choice because Britton said that Alicia had him roped in with everything she said.

Besides, Britton also gained a lot more attention due to his likeness with the Hollywood star Matt Damon. We can’t deny that he poses a striking resemblance to Matt Damon. And, along with his fantastic voice, he’s a fan favorite in the competition.
