Here’s how the night broke down:

Reba kicked off the night with a performance of her longest-lasting No. 1 single “Consider Her Gone.”

Then host Carson Daly called the Top 8 to the stage to begin the reveal of the results from Monday night’s vote.

The first finalist announced was Team Bublé’s Sofronio Vasquez.

Before any more results were announced, Gwen took the stage performing her single, “Somebody Else’s” off her forthcoming album Bouquet.

Then it was back to results with Carson revealing two more artists saved by America’s vote.

The first was Team Gwen’s Sydney Sterlace, followed by Team Snoop’s Jeremy Beloate, which means there is only one more slot before the Instant Saves.

Another entertainment break featured October London singing “3rd Shift.”

Carson returned at this point to reveal that the fourth spot in the finale was filled by Team Bublé’s Shye.

That meant that Adam Bohanan, Christina Eagle, Danny Joseph and Jan Dan had to sing for the Instant Save.

Taking the stage first was Christina Eagle with “Heart Like a Truck.”

“America, we have no country music singers in the finale,” Snoop pointed out. “You’re looking at her. Let’s keep it real. This show was built on that. When Carson gives the cue, you have 5 minutes to vote for her.”

Up second was Adam Bohanan, singing “Pretty Wings.”

“You never cease to amaze me,” said Reba. “Your vocals were incredible; your range was incredible. America, if you don’t vote for him, I don’t know what we’re going to do.”

Adam was followed by Jan Dan, singing “Gravity.”

“Wow!” Gwen said. “America what are we doing? You have to vote for Jan Dan. That was so beautiful. That was spiritual, incredible and mind blowing.”

Closing the show was Danny Joseph with “House of the Rising Sun.”

“You have always come out here and I am never nervous when you walk on stage,” Reba said. “You have that confidence and skill and you showed it tonight. America vote for Danny.”

Then it was time for America to vote while The Voice went to commercial. Upon its return, Carson killed time talking to the artists and coaches before revealing the winner of the Instant Save.

Danny Joseph was revealed to be the fifth artist to head into the Season 26 finale.

The Voice airs Monday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT for performances, Tuesday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT for results on NBC. Streams next day on Peacock.
