'The Voice' Recap: Pip Vs. Nathan

The 19-year-old KMHS graduate advances to the live rounds of the competition.

Marietta native and Kennesaw Mountain High School graduate Pip Arnold moves on to the live rounds of The Voice competition after defeating fellow Team Adam member Nathan Parrett on Monday night's episode. The pair, who performed "You Know I'm No Good" by Amy Winehouse in the elimination battle round, also happen to be good friends and housemates, Pip told Patch in a previous interview.

Behind the Voice: Pip Arnold

The 19-year-old Kennesaw Mountain High School graduate goes on to the battle rounds on NBC's "The Voice."

Phillip "Pip" Arnold takes the stage of The Voice sporting a button down shirt, orange sneakers, white suspenders and a plaid bow tie. "There is a house in New Orleans," the 19-year-old sings into the mic, soulfully lingering over the first few verses. By the time "of many a poor boy" artfully skips, then slides off his lips, judge Adam Levine is hooked, followed by Blake Shelton, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green. A pop of the left suspender seals Pip's place as a crowd favorite. The Kennesaw and Marietta communities have rallied behind the 2010 Kennesaw Mountain High School grad whose palindromic name, Southern fraternity-inspired style, and soulful voice earned him thousands of new fans literally overnight following the Feb. 13 …
