In this week's first episode of The Voice SA's Knockouts (30 April and 1 May), coach Kahn Morbee chose the four singers who will represent him when the competition kicks into full gear in the live voting rounds in three weeks time.
These are the four he chose...
Soulful Information Systems graduate Zee Gqamana (23) from Port Elizabeth:
The raspy-voiced cool cat Freddy Lalendle (23) from Pietermaritzburg:
Comedian Fatman (40) from Bela Bela, who showed his serious side with his rendition of the iconic Afrikaans song “Liefling”:
Craig Lucas (24) from Cape Town, who Kahn previously described as “the love child of Freddy Mercury and John Legend”.
These four will sing for viewer votes at the live shows, along with Amanda Faku (22) from PE, who was the first member of Karen Zoid’s team to make it through to the Live rounds this week.
We'll feature her voice once Karen's full team has been decided.
Karen, Lira and Bobby will finalise their teams during the next two episodes and the live shows begin in the week of 20 May.
