Dave Crosby and his daughter Claire captured hearts during season 13 of *The Voice* with their heartfelt rendition of *Toy Story*’s “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.” Their Blind Audition quickly became a standout moment, filling the stage with warmth and showcasing the deep bond they shared.
Before stepping onto *The Voice* stage, Dave had already gained widespread attention through viral YouTube videos featuring Claire’s singing. One of her performances, a touching version of the same song, even caught the attention of Ellen DeGeneres, leading to an appearance on her show. The video amassed over 14.6 million views, solidifying their status as internet sensations.
During his solo audition, Dave performed “I Will Follow You Into the Dark,” impressing the judges as Adam Levine, Miley Cyrus, and Blake Shelton all turned their chairs for him. His journey on the show was more than just about competing—it was about rediscovering his passion for music, something he credited to fatherhood and the special moments he shared with Claire.
When Adam Levine realized the duo’s viral fame, he invited Claire to join her father on stage for a surprise duet. The audience watched in awe as their voices blended seamlessly, creating a magical performance that resonated with viewers and judges alike.
Although Dave eventually joined Team Adam and was eliminated during The Battles, his audition remained one of the season’s most unforgettable highlights. Their performance was a testament to the power of family, music, and the moments that leave a lasting impression long after the stage lights fade.
