These 17-year-old twins are the epitome of cool, juggling their lives as high school seniors while rocking the stage together.

And guess what? They haven't slowed down since! Their repertoire includes covers of hits like Ed Sheeran's "Life Goes On," Olivia Rodrigo's debut single "Drivers License," and James Arthur's chart-topper "Say You Won't Let Go."

The twins blow the judges away with their cover of a One Direction song.

During their blind audition in the February 27 episode of The Voice, the Garcia twins take turns belting out verses from One Direction's "Story of My Life" before harmonizing in the chorus. Their riveting performance grabs the attention of coaches Chance the Rapper, Reba McEntire, and Dan + Shay, leading to a three-chair turn.

"That was unbelievable!" Shay exclaims. "Man, that was a fantastic performance. From the first time I heard you guys harmonizing, and I found out it was two people, I was like, 'We gotta turn around — this sounds amazing!'"

Chance the Rapper also wastes no time in showing his appreciation for the Garcia twins' "super developed" on-stage groove, being the first to swivel his chair only seconds into their set.

Reba, in particular, makes a heartfelt pitch to convince the Garcias to join her team. "I turned around because I grew up in a singing family," she explains. "It takes me back to my childhood. I absolutely love your enthusiasm; the way you look at each other when you're singing like — 'We're really here, and this is so much fun!' — I was really moved by it."

In the end, the Garcia twins decided to go with Dan + Shay as their coaches for the season. However, now they're all pumped up and excited to showcase their talent under Reba's guidance, especially after she swoops in to steal them for her own team during the Battles round!
