Mona Vale has lately been gaining recognition for a gem other than its surf beach – a rising star named Charlie Pittman, whose singing talent has made him one of the frontrunners in The Voice Australia.



The 19-year-old has made a remarkable impression on the Australian music scene as a contestant on “The Voice Australia.” Charlie’s unique talent and impressive performances have set him apart, making him one of the standout artists in the show’s upcoming Grand Finale.

Sunday night’s episode of “The Voice Australia” was nothing short of electrifying as four remarkable artists competed for the coveted title.

Charlie, mentored by Coach Guy Sebastian, surprised the judges and the audience with his innovative rendition of A-ha’s classic hit “Take On Me.”

However, it wasn’t just his vocal prowess that left everyone in awe; it was the audacious act of performing inside a clear box suspended a staggering five meters above the stage that truly captivated the crowd. 

“Charlie looked like a star tonight,” Coach Jason Derulo commented while Mr Sebastian praised his musical maturity.

Charlie’s journey on “The Voice Australia” has been marked by his willingness to take risks and push boundaries. As he advanced to the Grand Finale, Charlie expressed his gratitude to his supporters.

“Thank you so much for believing in me and letting me take risks. I won’t let you down,” he said on TV.

But before the ultimate showdown, each finalist has released an original track created in collaboration with renowned producers and songwriters. These singles, ranging from emotional ballads to vibrant pop numbers, are available for streaming and download, giving fans a taste of what’s to come.

“The Voice Australia 2023” grand finale will air on Sunday, 8 Oct 2023 at 7:00 p.m. on Channel 7.
