Watch Student Naomi Soleil's Folk Pop Performance on The Voice

Spoilers for The Voice season 27, episode 5.

Naomi Soleil, a songwriting major and former Aspire summer program attendee, caught the coaches' attention during her blind audition on The Voice. She performed "Stars" by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, getting chair turns from Adam Levine and Michael Bublé.

The folk-pop tune showcased her phrasing, which Levine complimented along with her fashion sense. Bublé admitted he didn't know much about that style of music, but thought she had a "really cool, interesting voice."

Soleil chose Bublé as her coach.

"As her private voice instructor [during the Aspire summer program], I remember vividly the moment she walked into the studio," says associate professor Cassandre McKinley. "Her palpable energy—full of free spirit, earthiness, and authenticity—was striking. When she sang, it all made sense; her voice, imbued with honesty and power, was fiery yet vulnerable."

"When she arrived as an undergrad at Berklee, we reunited," McKinley says. "Our lessons are never dull—they're creative, uncovering new dimensions and techniques that push her voice further. Over three consecutive semesters, I've witnessed her maturation and evolution. She recognizes her gift but doesn't rely solely on it. Instead, she's hyper-focused on the long game—writing, creating, questioning, experimenting, and discovering herself. Her voice continues to grow more nuanced without ever losing its edge."

Soleil is the second Berklee student on this season of The Voice, following Boston Conservatory senior Bryson Battle on Team Legend into the next round.
