LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In the latest episode of 'The Voice' Season 26, singer Mor Ilderton wowed the audience with his incredible vocals, performing in front of a star-studded judging panel that included Michael Buble, Snoop Dogg, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani. Mor Ilderton delivered a stunning rendition of Dylan Gossett’s hit track 'Coal' during Blind Auditions on the NBC singing show.

Growing up in West Virginia, Mor Ilderton was always immersed in music, with fond memories of his father playing the guitar. Along with this, he even mentioned that his father had around three guitars stored in the attic. During his freshman or sophomore year of high school, Mor was inspired to pick up a guitar after watching a YouTube video, and from that moment on, his passion for music has only grown stronger. He kicked off his music journey around five years ago, providing him with a sense of comfort during his teen years. He graduated from college with a degree in biology. He was raised by his uncle and grandmother from the age of two after his mother died. Mor's uncle, a Marine Corps veteran helped him to instill important values like discipline and structure in his life. Mor's uncle played a key role in helping him discover his true passion for music. Today, with the unwavering support of his uncle, aunt, and grandmother, Mor successfully balances his music career with his work in the medical field, pursuing both paths with dedication.
