Fans of The Voice UK were left scratching their heads during the premiere of the 2024 series when they recognized one of the performers. The show, which aired on Saturday night, featured the first round of blind auditions for this year's coaches: will.i.am, Sir Tom Jones, LeAnn Rimes, and Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones as a duo. Among the talented artists who took the stage, one group stood out in particular - a boyband called Mic Lowry. The band's performance of Mario's "Just A Friend 2002" impressed all of the coaches, leading them to turn their chairs and ultimately join will.i.am's team.
But it wasn't just the coaches who were blown away by Mic Lowry's talent. Viewers at home also couldn't help but notice that the band members looked very familiar. Upon closer inspection, many fans realized that the band was made up of Delleile Ankrah, Kaine Ofoeme, Ben Sharples, and Michael Welch - all of whom have already achieved success in the music industry. They have toured with big names like Justin Bieber and the Backstreet Boys, and even opened for Boyz 2 Men at the O2 many years ago.
Some viewers took to social media to express their excitement and support for Mic Lowry's appearance on The Voice. One fan, Sarah, wrote on X: "So pleased to see Mic Lowry on The Voice! I've loved them since they opened for Boyz 2 Men at the O2 many years ago. Their new album is so good!" Other fans also shared their enthusiasm, with one commenting on YouTube: "I can't even explain the excitement seeing Mic Lowry, I've listened to them for 8 years in October after they supported Justin Bieber in 2016, my winners already I reckon."
While some were surprised to see the already-successful group on The Voice UK, others didn't mind and were simply excited to see them on the show. However, there were a few who questioned why they were even competing, with one person named Emma writing: "Mic Lowry on The Voice? I thought they were already big." A YouTube user named @christospify even expressed their belief that the band was too "far into a professional career" to be on the show.
Despite the mixed reactions, Mic Lowry's talent and success cannot be denied. In addition to touring with global music stars, they have also performed on popular TV shows in the US. The group, which was formed in 2011, consists of four members who all attended the same school in Liverpool. After being signed to Universal Musical Group, they have since decided to go independent and have gained a large following on social media and music streaming platforms.
As The Voice UK continues, it will be interesting to see how far Mic Lowry will go in the competition. But regardless of the outcome, one thing is for sure - they have already made a name for themselves in the music industry. The show may just be another platform for them to showcase their talent and gain even more fans. The Voice UK airs on Saturday on ITV1 and ITVX.
