Ciiara Baker from Evesham will appear on The Voice UK again on Saturday following her successful debut in September.

Ciiara Baker, 21, from Evesham in Worcestershire will return to The Voice UK on Saturday following a successful debut in September. She impressed viewers and coaches during the Blind Auditions with a performance of Portishead's 'Glory Box'.

Baker has been singing and writing music since she was eight years old, performing at venues across Worcestershire, Evesham and Stratford. She is currently studying in London. She said: 'I'm pretty excited. It's my second episode, my best performance yet, and I'm excited for people to see. Being on The Voice is definitely an experience. It is a lot of fun but very stressful and nerve-racking because so many people are watching you.'

Baker said her mother signed her up for the show and encouraged her throughout her performing career. She expressed hope that her appearance would put Evesham on the map, noting that it was uncommon for someone from the town to appear on a major television show. As a young trans person, she said she hoped the experience would make people in that community feel more seen.
