BRIDGEWATER, Mass. (WWLP) – A Massachusetts native will be back on The Voice Monday night. Amherst Cinema announces 2025 “Science on Screen” season Conor James, 28, from Bridgewater will be back on stage for the battle rounds. He's fighting to stay on team Adam after winning over all four judges over during his audition.  Conor’s musical journey began in his hometown where he immersed himself in musical theater and taught himself how to play the piano on the keyboard his parents bought him. Following his dreams, he took a leap of faith after high school and moved to New York to study at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy. The city’s vibrant culture allowed him to embrace his authentic queer self while honing his craft. After six years of being in New York, Conor went west to Los Angeles, where he balances his artistic pursuits with practical necessities. He is now established himself as a working musician and producer, performing four nights a week across venues from nursing homes to luxury hotels, and private events all while releasing original music. Season 27 returned on February 3rd and can be watched on Mondays at 8 p.m. on 22News. Another contestant representing Massachusetts is Naomi Soleil of Boston. She performed her version of the song “Stars” by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals and chose Team Michael.
