NBC The Voice history was made on Tuesday when Team Kelly’s Girl Named Tom was crowned the winner of Season 21.
The trio, comprised of Josh, Caleb, and Bekah Liechty from Pettisville, Ohio, became the first-ever trio to make it to the finale and win the overall competition.
Additionally, Girl Named Tom is the first act in Voice history to simultaneously have four different songs within the Top 10 of iTunes.

“Kelly you have really believed in us since day one… Thank you for every little thing that you’ve taught us,” Bekah said.
“It’s been the most amazing thing to work with y’all this season… I love your harmonies, you’ve done amazing things on iTunes already… I am team GNT forever,” Clarkson gushed ahead of host Carson Daly announcing the winner.
Daly then declared Girl Named Tom as the winner of Season 21 of The Voice.
Earlier in the evening, the trio joined their coach, Clarkson, to perform a duet of Jonas Brothers’ latest single, “Leave Before You Love Me.”
Throughout the season, the trio has covered songs by Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Glen Campbell, Ingrid Andress, and Coldplay (just to name a few).
Girl Named Tom got their unique band name as Joshua and Caleb used to call their sister Bekah “Thomas” when they were young kids.
This marks Clarkson’s fourth win on The Voice, following wins from Team Kelly’s Brynn Cartelli, Chevel Sherpherd and Jake Hoot.
Joining Team Kelly’s Girl Named Tom in the finale were Team Kelly’s Hailey Mia, Team Blake’s Wendy Moten and Paris Winningham and Team Legend’s Jershika Maple.
The Voice Season 21 finale featured performances by Alicia Keys, Ariana Grande with Kid Cudi, Carrie Underwood with John Legend, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Jennifer Lopez, Tori Kelly with Keke Palmer and Walker Hayes.
Additionally, the Top 5 competitors — Girl Named Tom, Jershika Maple, Wendy Moten and Hailey Mia — performed alongside their coaches, Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend.
