Brittany Butler sings 'The Girl From Ipanema' (VIDEO)

Brittany Butler sang 'The Girl From Ipanema' on The Voice 2014 Season 7 Blind Auditions on Monday, October 6, 2014.

Brittany’s mother had had Crohn’s Disease since she was a little girl, but Brittany’s mother and grandfather raised her together. It was her grandfather who got her hooked on classic standards. He also got her the first guitar she ever owned, along with a camera to start posting on YouTube. She developed her talent and even received a scholarship to Berklee College of Music, which helped her grow considerably. Unfortunately, her grandfather passed away in 2009, but she wants to make him proud by scoring a spot on one of the four teams.

Brittany sings “Girl From Inpanema” and I really, really loved this audition. She has such a confident voice. Not a single note of nervousness in her tone. She also has terrific stage presence to go along with her unique look. She’s just such a package artist, and is rare in a competition like this. Not everyone takes that jazzy direction.

The coaches gave her a two chair turn.

Adam and Blake tease Gwen and Pharrell about their first face-off, and about how they’ll “nice each other to death.” And they prove Adam and Blake right, as Pharrell tries to lure Brittany to his team, only to tell her that she’d also be a perfect fit on Gwen’s team. Adam accuses them of trying to take each other down with rainbows and happiness, while Blake states that “the first handful of cotton candy has been thrown” in their war with one another. Proving his overall sweetness, Pharrell gets the crowd going in a chant that Gwen is awesome.
