Cresson, Cambria County native Josh Gallagher has advanced to the next live round of NBC's "The Voice."

Mr. Gallagher, performing "Colder Weather" by the Zac Brown Band, earned enough viewer votes during the episode to advance, along with Team Adam Levine colleague Billy Gilman, to next Monday's show.

That left three teammates, only one of whom could be saved by Mr. Levine. The coach decided on Brendan Fletcher.

"The Voice" tried something different Monday. For the first time, it used live, same-night voting to whittle down the field from 20 singers to 12.
