NBC’s The Voice has narrowed its field to four competitors as viewers sent Amanda Brown and Melanie Martinez packing.

In its third season, The Voice is a vocal competition in which musicians Cee Lo Green, Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, and Blake Shelton serve as coaches. Viewers vote for their favorites, eventually deciding the winner.

The latest departures mean the end for Levine, who on Tuesday became the second coach to exit the competition. Team Christina was eliminated last week when viewers voted to send home Dez Duron.

Terry McDermott and Cassadee Pope (of Team Blake) and Trevin Hunte and Nicholas David (of Team Cee Lo) are the show's four remaining vocalists.

Host Carson Daly also announced that each of the four finalists cracked the iTunes charts top 10 after Monday's performances.

The semi-final round of performances is at 8 p.m. Monday.
