The duo, of Newtown, Conn., has taken it even a move further to be in the top 8! Sasha confessed that he's transgender when they were preparing their entry to participate in Blind Auditions. Blind Auditions, and he admitted to Parade.com that it was a decision that was a matter of thought and reflection. Sasha stated that it was a struggle to choose because he needed to expose a personal and vulnerable part of him in thousands and millions of people.

We played the song before The Voice even existed. We were so excited when we got the song. We knew the song. had already heard; it was a song we knew we had ideas to arrange.
