The coaching panel will consist of Michael Bublé, who returns for his second consecutive season; John Legend, who returns for his tenth season after a one-season hiatus; Adam Levine who returns for his seventeenth season after last coaching during the sixteenth season; and Kelsea Ballerini who joins the panel as a new coach.
Overview
Development
On June 4, 2024, NBC announced that The Voice was renewed for a twenty-seventh season to air in the spring of that year. On June 5, the lineup of coaches was revealed on the show's website.[1]
Out of the four coaches that took part in the previous season, only Michael Bublé returned, marking his second consecutive season as a coach. Coaches Reba McEntire, Gwen Stefani, and Snoop Dogg all left the panel for the season. Former coach John Legend returns to the show following his absence in the previous season, marking his tenth season as a coach. Former coach Adam Levine returns the show after a ten-season hiatus, marking his seventeenth season on the show as a coach.[2] With Levine's return, this is first time since season 23, in which at least one coach from the inaugural season is featured. Additionally, Kelsea Ballerini will join the panel for her first season as a coach. Ballerini has made several previous appearances on the show: she was featured as the "Comeback Stage" coach during the fifteenth season, served as a battle advisor for Kelly Clarkson's team during the sixteenth season, and filled in as a guest coach for Clarkson during the battle rounds in the twentieth season.[3][4]
Carson Daly returns for his twenty-seventh consecutive season as host.
Note: Italicized names are artists stolen from another team during the battles or the knockouts (names struck through within former teams). Underlined names are artists who received a "Playoff pass" from their coach.
The show begins with the blind auditions. In each audition, an artist sings their piece in front of the coaches, whose chairs face the audience. If a coach is interested in working with the artist, they may press their button to face the artist. If only one coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has one "block" to prevent another coach from getting an artist. The team sizes for the season are yet to be announced.
