What Maelyn Jarmon Has Been Up To Since Winning The Voice
The Season 16 winner returned to The Voice stage and delivered another breathtaking performance.
When Maelyn Jarmon got a 4-Chair Turn during her Blind Audition on The Voice Season 16, there was no doubt that she was going to be a star. The singer’s breathtaking performances of songs like Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and “The Scientist” by Coldplay led to fans naming her as the winner of The Voice in 2019, and she’s still sharing her beautiful musical talents with us today.
The Frisco, Texas native not only became the first winner on John Legend’s team, but she was also the first Artist with a hearing impairment to win the title of NBC’s long-running singing competition. Jarmon lost hearing in her right ear when she was a child and told CTV News she’s always thought of it “as a superpower.”
“I hear music differently,” she added. “Sometimes if I can’t hear well enough, I focus on vibrations so it just feels very different to me.”
Legend, whose first season as a Coach on The Voice was with Jarmon in 2019, knew she’d be successful. “I love her work ethic, her attention to detail. She goes into every song with a strategy and a plan for how to execute the song and she has the wherewithal to be able to actually do it,” he told E! News in 2019. “She would be good no matter who was her Coach because she has that level of excellence already in her.”
