Call it fate.
Andrew Marshall was 16 seconds into a cover of his idol John Mayerâs âGravityâ when Nick Jonas slapped a red buzzer and flipped around to watch Marshall, assuring the 21-year-old River Hawkâs place as a contestant on âThe Voice.â
Though 7.4 million viewers saw Jonas hit the button, Marshall, a music business major, had settled into the song, eyes closed.
âIt was crazy,â says Marshall, 21, by phone from home, just days after the program aired but a few months after it was taped in Los Angeles. âI was in the zone. I didnât open my eyes until (Jonas) was in mid-turn with his chair. ⦠I basically forgot how to play guitar at one point. And then I thought, âLetâs see if I can get someone else to turn.ââ

Beacon Hill Roll Call records local representatives’ votes on a roll call from the week of Jan. 25 to Jan. 29. There were no roll calls in the Senate last week.
Climate change (S 9) The House, 144 to 14, and the Senate on a voice vote without a roll call, approved and sent to Gov. Charlie Baker a 57-page climate change bill. A key section makes the state’s greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal net zero by 2050. The bill is sponsored by Sen. Mike Barrett, D-Cambridge, and Rep. Thomas Golden, D-Lowell, who led the successful charge for legislative approval of the legislation for several months in 2020. An identical measure had passed in the House by 145 to 9 and in the Senate by 38 to 2 in 2020 margins that were large enough for the Legislature to easily override any gubernatorial veto.
