The Voice Australia has a new superstar! Country singer-songwriter Duncan Toombs took to the blind auditions last night, leaving LeAnn Rimes in tears with his rendition of 'Have A Little Faith' before performing a song he wrote for his late father.

Duncan turned all four chairs, with coaches Guy Sebastian, LeAnn Rimes, Adam Lambert and Kate Miller-Heidke all battling it out for him to choose them. After LeAnn asked if he writes his own music, Duncan confirmed that he does, before playing an original song he wrote for his late father, leaving many fans of the show (and LeAnn) in tears.

Duncan chose to go on Team LeAnn after saying "country music" has always looked after him.
