‘The Voice Australia’ 2016 Rewind: Tash Lockhart, Ellen Reed, Adam Ladell and Andrew Loadsman among best performers
Next episode airs June 13 on Nine
“The Voice Australia” 2016 (Season 5) goes live this Monday on Nine Network. Sixteen contestants are vying for public votes. Tash Lockhart, Ellen Reed, Adam Ladell and Andrew Loadsman may be their respective team’s best bet. Coaches Delta Goodrem and Jessie J each has two 4-chair turners in their teams, while new coach Ronan Keating has no all-turn. Who will stun and awe the audience in their first live performance on the show?
Tash Lockhart (Team Ronan) was stellar in her David Bowie cover in the super battles. Ellen Reed (Team Jessie) has so far been consistent with her big vocals and powerful deliveries. Adam Ladell (Team Delta) loses all signs of Tourette Syndrome when he sings; at various points in the show, Ladell was even more confident and compelling than the rest of his peers.

Andrew Loadsman (Team Madden) is in a league that is all his own; his numbers have all been concert-level up to the super battles. These four are likely to make it to the next round of the competition, barring any struggle or weak moments in the live shows.
The following were four-chair turners in the blind auditions, but they all went home after the previous week’s super battles: Maddison McNamara (Team Madden, Jessie J), Claire Howell (Jessie J), Georgia Carey (Team Ronan), and the Koi Boys (Team Jessie J).
