Vicci Martinez Makes It to Next Round of NBC’s The Voice

Tacoma rocker outsings Niki Dawson in “the best duet of the night.”

Email

I just heard that Tacoma rocker Vicci Martinez won last night’s elimination round on NBC’s The Voice in a too-close-to-call battle with 19-year-old Niki Dawson. Woo! Watch the clip above for a replay of their singoff: a duet of Pink’s “F***ing Perfect” that Adam Levine called the best performance of the night.

A few thoughts:

—I love that they’re referring to Vicci as a “fiery soul singer from the Pacific Northwest.” It makes the NW sound so much less soggy.

—Has anyone ever called Cee Lo out on his sunglasses-at-night thing?

—I should actually start watching this show rather than replaying clips online. I think I like it better than American Idol.

UPDATED 5/18/11. Vicci has a few weeks off from battling on The Voice, so she’s coming home to play a show at Showbox at the Market on Saturday, May 28. Tickets are on sale now.

I think the judges are a lot better on this show than on American Idol. Not just because of their celebrity, but because they’re fun, and mess around with each other. And the format is awesome!
