Craig Wayne Boyd and James David Carter sing 'Wave on Wave' (VIDEO)

Craig Wayne Boyd and James David Carter sang 'Wave on Wave' by Pat Green on The Voice 2014 Season 7 Battle Round on Monday, October 13, 2014 for Team Blake Shelton. Who won the battle?

Little Big Town are Blake’s guest mentors, and both Craig and James are stoked to meet them. And Little Big Town is every bit as excited about the voices of the contestants, gushing about their talent in a confessional. They’re singing ‘Wave On Wave’ by Pat Green, and it’s a lovely vocal, although not without issues. Little Big Town, in another confessional, note that both have picked up certain habits from their countless years of performing. However, any issues the men have can easily be worked on.

Case in point, in the rehearsal, Craig is warned about the break in his voice, and both Blake and Little Big Town give him hints on how he can get through the line he’s struggling with. James then spontaneously decides to start playing “Bring It On Home” by Little Big Town, leading to an impromptu jam session that is actually the most interesting thing to happen in the episode so far. Have I mentioned that Blake has a lovely voice?

Gwen loves Craig’s voice, and loves his style, saying she wants to dress him up. She says she knew she was going to steal him as soon as he started singing, although that begs the question of why she nearly let him leave. But maybe she always had it planned that way, for dramatic purposes. It certainly made for a nice little moment.
