Voting for the first round of The Voice‘s live playoffs has completed and Worcester’s Ricky Duran has punched his ticket to the Top 13.
On Monday night, Duran opened the live playoffs with a performance of John Mellencamp’s “Small Town.”
During Tuesday night’s reveal of the Top 13 to advance, Duran was the first competitor selected by the fans from country music star Blake Shelton’s team.
Prior to Duran’s performance on Monday night, Shelton said, “Every time Ricky gets on that stage, I know he’s going to kill it. He’s got kind of a gravely sound, but he’s just a very aggressive singer and I love that.”
