Night one of The Voice Season 25 finale kicked off Monday (May 20) with performances from each of the five finalists, including Team Reba’s Josh Sanders.

Josh Sanders, a North Carolina native, landed on Team Reba after earning a 2-chair turn with a performance of Nate Smith’s “Whiskey On You” during his Blind Audition. Week after week, Sanders delivered top-notch performances, never veering far from his country lane.

Sanders’s performance on Monday night was no different. He took the stage twice in hopes of earning enough of America’s votes to win the Voice title when a new winner is crowned on Tuesday.

For his first finale performance, the 35-year-old covered Vince Gill’s iconic ballad, “Go Rest High On That Mountain.” Josh kicked up the tempo for his second song – a toe-tapping rendition of Randy Houser’s “Boots On.”


Josh Sanders was one of only two male country acts who advanced to the live rounds this season. Country singers like Josh have a history of doing well on The Voice, and pulling off a stunning Vince Gill cover is no easy feat.

“Go Rest High On That Mountain” has been covered numerous times on reality singing competitions. Not only is it a sure-fire way for contestants to connect emotionally with viewers, but it gives them a chance to show off voice control and range.

Josh Sanders did just that with his performance Monday night, proving once again that he can sing just about anything. Earlier in the season, he won over the country crowd with covers of songs from Thomas Rhett, Chris Stapleton, Corey Kent and Nate Smith. But, it’s safe to say that his performance of this Vince Gill classic is our favorite from him.
