Reagan James

"Her ethereal vocal, maturity, artful guitar playing and commanding stage presence captured the coaches' attention, as her youthful star power shone bright.

'I thought it was just beautiful the way you just floated across the stage,' Williams told James, who turns 16 this week. Added Stefani: 'I loved those lyrics for you. That could have easily been your song.'" - People Magazine

"Her time on national television, as one of the youngest contestants ever on the popular singing competition, was not a conclusion, she explained, but a commencement.

Watching the 16-year-old perform a compelling, sold out 80-minute set Saturday at the Live Oak, she struck me then as she did late last year: wise well beyond her years. Her sense of self-possession is extraordinary, a quality all too rare even among more seasoned artists." - DFW.com

Meanwhile, 16-year-old Reagan James released the first new cut we've heard from her since ending her run on the last season of The Voice. Simply called "Blue," it's a well-delivered, supremely promising bit of soul pop that further proves she's got far more in her bag than the Blu Cantrell and Lorde covers that made her such a strong competitor on the series. Give it a listen. - Central Track
