Chris Mann Looks Back On ‘The Voice’ & Reveals The Inspiration Behind Danceable New Track, ‘Gentleman’ – The Voice definitely helped propel you to fame. Do you have a favorite memory from the show? When I sang “The Prayer” with Christina, that’s who I wanted, that’s what song I wanted to do, that was the moment I wanted to do it and going all the way to the end with her and getting to do that song was, for sure, a really amazing opportunity. Do you keep in touch with anyone from the show? Yeah, I do. I actually just got off the phone with Alisan Porter as well. We’re gonna be doing something together in Los Angeles, so we were just sort of working out the details. But that show was sort of like a really intense summer camp where you’re kind of friends that are connected for life. I think you’re kind of bonded forever. – Read more at Hollywood Life

Interview: Sarah Potenza keeps rocking with latest album ‘Road to Rome’ – AXS: How different has your life and career been since The Voice? Sarah Potenza: When you come on something like “The Voice,” it kind of shakes you. Not like shakes you in a bad way; it’s just like your whole perspective of everything, the rug gets tugged out from under you. It’s been an amazing couple of years; the fans have been incredible. I feel like I’m really caught up right now, which is rare. What I’m saying on the album and the way that I’m saying it is where I’m at emotionally and spiritually, and that doesn’t happen often for us musicians because a lot of times what happens is, it does take so long to make the album and put to it out that the songs we put on it were things we wrote two or three years ago. These are all songs that I wrote within this year. It’s incredible to be all caught up with everything. – Read more at AXS
