Where Are They Now? Every Finalist From ‘The Voice’ Season 25

Season 25 of The Voice was a wild time. It’s not often that a handful of finalists are composed of such wild cards, and each of them was equally as likely to take home the win. Now that Season 26 of The Voice is wrapping up, let’s take a look at five of Season 25’s finalists and what they’ve been up to since the show wrapped earlier in 2024.

1. Asher HaVon

Out of all The Voice Season 25 finalists to make it to the very end, gospel crooner Asher HaVon took home the win. HaVon was a member of Reba McEntire’s team and became the first LGBTQ+ winner of the singing competition show.

Since winning earlier this year, HaVon took home the hefty $100,000 prize and scored a record deal with Republic Records. He’s since appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show and has made a few other television appearances, but we’ve yet to see a new album. Hopefully, one is in the works. His post-show single “Thank You” was a great preview of what he can do!

2. Josh Sanders

Josh Sanders came in second place on Season 25 of The Voice, and he was one of the finest finalists to almost take home the win. The country-rock singer has since released his debut single “Take Her Out Tonight” and has been performing live sets regularly since the end of The Voice.

3. Bryan Olesen

Bryan Olesen came in third place on The Voice Season 25, and he was definitely one of the biggest fan-favorite finalists. This Christian rock star already had a fairly established career in bands like Newsboys and VOTA before appearing on the show. 

Since the end of his season, Olesen has continued performing live with Newsboys and posts on Instagram regularly about his life, family, and music.

4. Nathan Chester

This lovable cruise ship crooner made it to fourth place on Season 25 of The Voice. Since leaving the show, Nathan Chester returned to performing live on Caribbean Princess cruises. He recently put on a powerhouse show on Thanksgiving Day with a few fellow soul singers. He also still performs as one half of the duo Ebony & Ivory.

5. Karen Waldrup

Karen Waldrup made it to fifth place during Season 25 of The Voice. This country singer, like many of the other finalists from Season 25 of The Voice, went straight back to continuing her musical journey. 

Shortly after her season wrapped, she released the single “Louisiana Hurricane” and continues to perform live. She’s also very active on her Instagram account.
