During the latest episode of The Voice, the final five members of Team Reba McEntire competed in the Playoffs for a chance to move on to the Live Shows.
Although each member has shown their talent throughout Season 26 of the singing competition, only two of the final five could advance.
Team Reba’s final five members included Katie O, Adam Bohanan, Edward Preble, Lauren-Michael Sellers, and Danny Joseph. They received extra support during their rehearsals when country star Lainey Wilson joined as their Playoff advisor.
When it was Adam Bohanan’s turn to prove why he deserved to move forward in the competition, he delivered a soulful performance of Chris Stapleton’s 2023 song “Think I’m In Love With You.”
The song was released in September 2023 as a promotional single for Chris Stapleton’s fifth studio album, Higher, and later became the album’s second single in 2024. It tells the story of a man realizing the undeniable love he has for a woman and the powerful effect she has on him.

While rehearsing for his Playoff performance, McEntire and Wilson offered Bohanan valuable advice to help improve his stage presence.
McEntire advised Bohanan to make more eye contact with the audience while performing. Wilson suggested he set aside the guitar during the song’s most important verse to create a more emotional connection with the audience.
Ultimately, Bohanan took McEntire and Wilson’s advice to heart, and it paid off. He received high praise for his performance, even earning a standing ovation from Coach Snoop Dogg.
“You keep getting better and better,” McEntire said. “And when Lainey told you to put the guitar down and get out in front, you did it. You put your personality in with this song.”
“Adam’s got that dirty soul. He’s raspy, he’s growly, he’s got a terrific range,” she added.
When it came time to decide who would move on to the Live Shows, Bohanan’s performance of Stapleton’s “Think I’m In Love With You” earned him a spot.
He and Danny Joseph were named the winners of the playoff round, advancing to the next stage for Team Reba.
