Brynn Cartelli (born April 16, 2003) is an American pop singer. She is the winner of season 14 of the American talent competition The Voice. At the age of 15, she became the youngest person in the show's history to win the competition. She competed on the team coached by Kelly Clarkson, giving her first win as a coach on the show. She released her debut album, Out of the Blue, in 2024.

Early life Cartelli was born in Longmeadow, Massachusetts. She began playing piano when she was five and it was her parents who introduced her to classical, country and soul music. Two of the four coaches, Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton, turned their chairs for her. She chose to be part of Team Kelly. Clarkson deemed her the winner and advanced her to the Knockout rounds. In the Knockouts, she then defeated fellow team member Jamella with her rendition of "Here Comes Goodbye" by Rascal Flatts, and advanced to the Live Shows.

On the first night of the Live Playoffs, Cartelli performed the song "Unstoppable" by Sia. The public voted her straight through to the Top 12 week, sparing her a second performance that week. Cartelli continued advancing throughout the Live Shows. Her performances included covers of "Up to the Mountain" by Patty Griffin in the Top 12 week, "Yoü and I" by Lady Gaga in the Top 11 week, "Fix You" by Coldplay in the Top 10 week, and "What the World Needs Now is Love" by Jackie DeShannon in the Semi-Finals week. The latter two songs charted in the Top 10 of iTunes, giving Cartelli a download bonus multiplier for each performance.

During the Live Finale on May 21, 2018, Cartelli joined her coach, Clarkson, in a duet as they sang "Don't Dream It's Over" by Crowded House. She then performed her original "Walk My Way", and closed the night with Adele's "Skyfall". At the end of the night, Cartelli was named the winner of Season 14 of The Voice, becoming the youngest contestant to win the show. She received a prize of $100,000 and a record deal with Republic Records.
