A Placerville teenager made quite an impression Tuesday night on ‘The Voice‘.  16-year-old Jaclyn Lovey got Blake Shelton and Alecia Keys to turn around with her sweet, stripped down version of Elvis Presley’s ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’

Blake attempted to sway Lovey to pick him as her coach, but in the end she chose Alecia Keyes.

“As a homeschooler, Jaclyn has always been able to focus on her passions of dancing and singing while being surrounded by the support of her community. At 11, Jaclyn’s family took an RV trip to Nashville, where she recorded her first original song,” according to NBC. “The Placerville, California community has financially supported Jaclyn in recording her first EP, taking ballet lessons, and providing a piano. Performing on ‘The Voice’ which was once only a dream is now a reality.”
