Lucca, RaeLynn, Mann, Laureta, Unga, and Campbell moved forward in the competition after they won their respective "battle" round face-offs against fellow contestants Chris Cauley, Adley Stump, Monique Benabou, Angie Johnson, Brian Fuente, and Anthony Evans.
The contestants squared off in the "battle" round face-offs after The Voice coaches Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine, and Blake Shelton each selected two members of their individual singing teams to perform a duet performance that would end with the coach eliminating one of the singers from the competition.
Lucca and Cauley, a singer from Alpharetta, GA, were matched-up by Levine and required to sing U2's "Beautiful Day."
Shelton paired RaeLynn and Stump, a singer from Tulsa, OK, and then had them perform a duet of Tom Petty's "Free Fallin."
Mann and Benabou, a singer from Alameda, CA, were selected by Aguilera and assigned Celine Dion's "The Power of Love" for their "battle" round.
Laureta and Johnson, a singer from St. Louis, MO, were paired by Green and required to perform Jim Steinman's "Total Eclipse of the Heart."
Unga and Fuente, a singer from Ridgeland, MS, were matched-up by Shelton and required to sing Alanis Morissette's "Ironic" for their "battle" round.
Aguilera paired Campbell and Evans, a singer from Dallas, TX, and then had them perform a duet of Alicia Keys' "If I Ain't Got You."
Monday night's The Voice broadcast was the first of the competition's four "battle" round episodes.
