Rigby Teen Advances on The Voice

Owen Uffens, a student at BYU-Idaho, appeared on the national television show “The Voice.” Uffens, who lives in Rigby, Idaho, competed in the singing competition that pairs performers with celebrity coaches. He selected Adam Levine as his coach after receiving the invitation to compete. Uffens described the opportunity to join the show as a surprise.

The contestant gained attention on social media platforms before his national television run. His performance on the show drew viewers across the United States. Local media outlets, including KPVI in Eastern Idaho, produced features covering his participation. Uffens performed the song “Electric Feel” during the broadcast. The clip became widely shared among fans who followed his progress.

Uffens competed in a segment known as Cut Week. During this phase, the show eliminated contestants to reduce the number of participants. Uffens was removed from the competition during this period last week. Despite the elimination, online audiences continued to support the Rigby native. Viewers expressed a desire to see him perform again in future formats.

Uffens has cited a lifelong interest in music and singing as the foundation for his career path. He currently balances his studies at BYU-Idaho with his musical pursuits. The show remains active in finding new talent from across the country. Uffens joins a small group of Idahoans who have recently featured on major national game shows and competitions.
