f you think that you may recognize Liam St. John from last season 19 of The Voice, Team Gwen, you are correct.Similar to “The Butterfly Effect,” a phenomenon wherein a small change in starting conditions can lead to vastly different outcomes, so did Liam’s talents on The Voice cause a small rift in Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton’s perfect relationship:  
They both found themselves fighting over the same artist.
(Don’t worry. They have since made up.)
Blake Shelton found himself admiring and even becoming a little jealous of Liam’s falsetto, and his uninhibited soulful screams. 
Spoiler alert: And so will you.
Making yet another great career move, Liam chose Gwen Stafani as his Coach. Gwen described Liam's voice as “incredible” and “rich.” 
It takes a lot of hard work and hustle to make it in the music business. 
And no one has hustled more than Liam St. John. He has been in the trenches outside the Rock & Roll castle for years, paying his dues playing at open mics, empty dive bars, and as he says sometimes “making nothing except the occasional well-whiskey or slice of pizza.” 
But this story has a happy ending, or should I say, a happy beginning for our young blues-rock singer, and songwriter: For his band finally broke through with an opportunity to open for the British soul-rock sensation, Jacob Banks. 
Critics and fans often describe Liam’s vocals with words like “smoky, rugged, and classic” and describe him as a “vocal powerhouse.”  
They compare his confident swagger to a “seasoned performer, with the passion of a gritty blues singer.”
Indie Shuffle, declares, “the singer’s bluesy, raspy vocals are always commanding.” 
Soul-pop star Meghan Trainor describes Liam as “incredible” 
Gwen Stefani defines him as “charismatic”  Kelly Clarkson praises Liam’s stage presence saying, “you are so intense”https://liamstjohn.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mrliamstjohn/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/MrLiamStJohnYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/LiamStJohnOfficial
