We had a chance to talk about what it’s like performing on the show, how nervous he was when all FOUR chairs turned around during his audition, if he was bummed that Gwen Stefani blocking John Legend, how he likes being on Team Blake, his advice to future contestants on The Voice, and most importantly teaching and inspiring his students.

Catch Kevin on The Voice Mondays and Tuesdays at 7pm on NBC!
