Team Dan + Shay is winning over hearts and ears on "The Voice," one pitch-perfect note at a time.
The country-pop duo's talented vocalists made their mark on the NBC singing competition during the first results show of the season Tuesday night. Following the Top 12 contestants' performances on Monday, viewers voted through three members of Team Dan + Shay, including pop songbird Madison Curbelo.
The 22-year-old blew the coaches away during Monday's live show with her soaring rendition of "Yesterday" by The Beatles.
"When I hear you sing, I truly feel something. And I'm just so glad that the world is now getting to hear your voice," Shay Mooney told Curbelo. "Because it's not just your voice that's coming out. It's your soul; it's your spirit. It's joy literally just going out into the world."
Team Dan + Shay is now leading the Season 25 pack with the most singers in the competition.

Who won the Instant Save on 'The Voice'?
Tae Lewis of Team Dan + Shay earned the Instant Save vote and saved himself from elimination with a lively performance of "The Church on Cumberland Road" by Shenandoah.
The 32-year-old's cover of the late-'80s country hit stood out among the bottom four performances thanks to his soulful vocals and concert-ready charisma.
"That was like a finale performance," Dan Smyers told Lewis. "We are so proud of you, how far you’ve come. I hear it in your voice, I see it in your eyes (and) I feel it in your soul. You want to be here. You deserve to be here."
