The knockout rounds are in session! Playing to maintain her spot on Team Alicia Keys, Kylie Rothfield performed an intoxicating stripped down cover to Elvis Presley’s famed “Hound Dog.”

Rothfield rendered the coaches speechless with her acoustic performance. While lacking in the glitzy aspect of The King’s original, she far more than makes up it with her wildly impressive vocal vibrato. She won an advancement to the next round on Keys’ team taking out the singing sisters duo, Whitney and Shannon, who performed Jason Mraz’s “I Won’t Give Up.”

Rothfield first won a spot on Team Alicia in her blind audition to the tune of One Republic’s “Wherever I Go” and maintained her spot through the battle rounds with a riveting duet to “House of the Rising Sun” against Josh Halverson who now finds his home on Team Miley Cyrus.
