Britton Moore, a Ronald Reagan graduate, started as a lead church singer at the Northrock Church of San Antonio, where Moore says he found his voice. His family had always been musical with his mom being in choir, and his family at church sing-a-longs.
In early February Moore Announced he would be joining the voice after he had declined once before. The first time Moore was asked to join the voice, he had to decline as the rattler baseball team advanced to the finals.
“All the years of sports had taught me how to perform in high pressure situations, if I made it to the live shows I’d be super stoked to win over America’s vote.” said Moore.
On the first episode of The Voice, Moore performed a cover of ‘Yellow’ by Coldplay during the first week of blind auditions, giving him a 4 chair turn. Moore continued to advance to each round with his coach Adam Lavine helping critique and improve every step of the competition.
“This song I finally feel like your voice has more of an identity, and I think it’s important for you cause it’s the playoffs, so this is great timing for you. We need a variation of energy.” Lavine encouraged.
Moore continued to perform multiple rounds, even advancing to the battle rounds. Moore kept advancing until he qualified for the playoffs. The first round of the playoffs, Moore performed a cover of “Something only we know” by Keane.
“Here you are singing the crap out of that which is not an easy song and really making an incredible impression on this competition. Congratulations.” said Lavine.
When it came down to the decision on who gets to move on, the decisions were tough. Adam Lavine decided to pick Lucia Flores-Wiseman and Kolby Cordell, eliminating Moore from the competition.
