During the second Battle Rounds on The Voice Season 14, Adam Levine pits Reid Umstattd against the one-named singer Davison. Together they sing the Rihanna song “Love On the Brain.” Reid’s experience on stage is a definite advantage. The 34-year-old from Austin, Texas spent years in the alt-rock band Nelo. Davison is a 23-year-old aspiring star who pays his bills as a store supervisor. While the talent of both men is undeniable, Reid sings the lyrics with conviction. Based on the reactions from Kelly Clarkson and Alicia Keys, they agree.
How does Reid tap into that emotion? It might have something to do with being married to his wife Jena. See cute photo below. The Voice airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8pm on NBC.
