Grace Humphries Talks ‘The Voice: Battle of Champions,’ Songwriting, And Gaining Confidence

At 18 years old Grace Humphries has already carved out an impressive resume. This season, she is part of The Voice: Battle of Champions and she also has several songs out available on digital. During the interview, Humphries talked about her journey on the show and reflected on the meaning behind her song “For Years.” Humphries also discussed her passion for songwriting and gaining confidence thanks to her work on The Voice: Battle of Champions. Full interview is in our post.

The interview starts off with a reflection on her rendition of Joni Mitchell’s song “Both Sides Now.” John Legend turned his chair for the performance, and Grace Humphries became part of Team Legend.

“I think the emotion is the hardest part about it,” said Humphries. “It’s like the Mt. Everest of songs. But I love Joni and I love her songwriting and her depth. I just feel so inspired by her and I knew I had to sing it because I just like that’s what I want to go for too someday.”

 During her time on The Voice: Battle of Champions, Humphries did not have to travel that road alone.

“I was there with my mom because I was still technically a minor on the show,” said Humphries. “That was really fun being there with my mom. And the friends I made so many lifelong connections and just really sweet, good people. Obviously the experience itself, I grew so much. My confidence, like I, when I go do a gig, I just have so much more confidence now. I don’t really get nervous anymore.”

Grace Humphries and Adi Arora battle it out tonight on The Voice: Battle of Champions (9/8c) and is available the next day on Peacock.
