CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – South Carolina is heating the stage on NBC’s “The Voice” this season.

Charleston native Page Mackenzie, 32, earned two chair turns while singing “Hell on Wheels” by Pistol Annies during Monday night’s episode.

Voice coaches Kelsea Ballerini and Michael Bublé turned their chairs within seconds of each other as they expressed interest in working with Mackenzie; however, the Lowcountry-born singer ultimately decided to join Team Kelsea.

Mackenzie said she is most excited about working with Ballerini because they are close in age, and both sing country music.  “We’re, you know, females in country music. So, I’m excited to just bond with her and feel safe and comfortable with a coach. I’m just looking forward to getting to know her.”

“Paige has a beautiful, traditional country sound, but I can hear her pop sensibility as well,” said Ballerini.

While Mackenzie was born and raised in the Lowcountry, she moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 2016 and launched a career in music. According to her online bio, she has performed alongside Kenney Chesney, Lee Brice, and Darius Rucker at the Carolina County Music Festival in Myrtle Beach.

She has also performed on stages across Charleston like the Music Farm, Windjammer, and Sottile Theater.

After making her choice, Ballerini gifted Mackenzie with a pair of cowboy boots. “They say Team Kelsea on there and we can break them in together in Nashville,” the country music superstar said.

“It feels absolutely insane to be on this show. I wake up every day with a little bit of imposter syndrome. Am I supposed to be here? Is this even real? And it’s absolutely insane and I’m so grateful,” Mackenzie said of being on the show.

College of Charleston student Grace-Miller Moody, a native of Florence, South Carolina, also earned a spot on the show during blind auditions earlier this month.
