The twenty-sixth season of the American reality television series The Voice premiered on September 23, 2024, on NBC. The season is hosted by Carson Daly, who returns for his twenty-sixth season. The coaching panel consists of Reba McEntire, who returns for her third season; returning coach Gwen Stefani, who returns for her eighth season after a one-season hiatus; and debuting coaches Michael Bublé and Snoop Dogg.

Overview

[edit]

Development

[edit]

On May 10, 2024, NBC announced that The Voice was renewed for a twenty-sixth season to air in the fall of that year.[1] On May 13, the lineup of coaches was unveiled at the network's upfront presentation for the 2024–25 United States network television schedule at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.[2][3]

Coaches and host

[edit]

Of the four coaches that participated in the previous season, only Reba McEntire returned, marking her third season as a coach.[3] Coaches Chance the Rapper, Dan + Shay, and John Legend all departed the panel for the season. The latter two coaches both cited their ongoing concert tours as reasons for their departure.[4][5]

Former coach Gwen Stefani returns to the show following her absence in the previous season, marking her eighth season as a coach.[6] Canadian singer-songwriter Michael Bublé and rapper Snoop Dogg join the coaching panel for their first seasons,[7] marking the first time since season 23 in which two coaches were introduced in a season. Both new coaches previously appeared on the show: Bublé previously served as a battle advisor for Team Blake on season 3,[8] while Snoop Dogg served as a mega mentor on season 20 during the Knockouts.[9][10] With Bublé's debut, he becomes the first Canadian to serve as a coach on the American adaptation of The Voice.[11]

Carson Daly returns for his twenty-sixth season as host.

Mega mentors

[edit]

On November 4, 2024, it was announced that former coach Jennifer Hudson would serve as a mega mentor for the Knockouts alongside English musician Sting. Hudson will mentor Teams Bublé and Reba, while Sting will be paired with Teams Gwen and Snoop.[12] This marks the first season to feature two mega mentors in the Knockouts. For the fourth consecutive season, there were no guest advisors in the battles, meaning the artists were solely mentored by their coaches.

Marketing and promotion

[edit]

Ahead of the season's premiere, on July 26, the show, via its online media platforms, released a cover of the 1966 Four Tops single "Reach Out I'll Be There" performed by the coaches.[13] On September 23, hours before the premiere, the show released a cover of the coaches performing the 1979 Eagles hit, "Heartache Tonight".[14]

Shortly prior to the season premiere, the blind audition of Sofronio Vasquez, performing Mary J. Blige's "I'm Goin' Down", was released online.[15]

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 were saved by their coach in the knockouts. Bolded names are artists who were saved by the “Coach Replay” in the Blind Auditions.

Blind auditions

[edit]

The show began with the Blind Auditions on September 23, 2024. 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. This season, each coach ends up with 14 artists by the end of the blind auditions, creating a total of 56 artists advancing to the battles.[16]

This season, a new feature was introduced, dubbed the "Coach Replay." This addition allows each coach to press their button one time in the span of the blind auditions for an artist that was originally eliminated with no coaches turning. The artist is subsequently defaulted to that team. The recipients of this feature for each team were Kendall Eugene for Team Reba, Gail Bliss for Team Snoop, Jaylen Dunham for Team Gwen, and Mark Shiiba for Team Bublé, respectively.[17]

With Michael Bublé having four 4-chair turn contestants, he tied with Camila Cabello and Reba McEntire in which a debuting coach has the most 4-chair turns in their season.

In addition, Gwen Stefani received the most 4-chair turns during a single season in her eight seasons as a coach, with a total of six.

Battles

[edit]

The second stage of the show, the battles, aired from October 21, 2024, to November 4, 2024, consisting of episodes 7 through 11. In this round, the coaches pitted two of their artists in a singing match and then select one of them to advance to the next round. For the fourth consecutive season, there were no guest advisors for the battles, which meant the artists were mentored solely by their coaches.

This season’s battle rounds are similar to season 24; losing artists may be "stolen" by another coach, becoming new members of that coach's team. Multiple coaches can attempt to steal an artist, resulting in a competition for the artist, who will then decide which team to join. Each coach has two steals to use this round. At the end of this round, nine artists will remain on each team; seven will be the battle winners, while the other two are stolen from another coach. In total, 36 artists will advance to the knockouts.[16]

Knockouts

[edit]
Jennifer Hudson served as mega mentor for Teams Bublé and Reba, and Sting served as mega mentor for Teams Gwen and Snoop.

The third stage of the show, the knockouts, will begin airing on November 11. Jennifer Hudson served as mega mentor for Teams Bublé and Reba, and Sting served as mega mentor for Teams Gwen and Snoop. In the round, each coach groups three of their artists in a singing match. The artists themselves will select the song they will sing in the round, and then their coach selects one of them to advance to the playoffs.

This season's Knockout rounds are once again similar to seasons 22 and 24. Throughout the round, each coach can steal one losing artist from an opposing team and save one of their artists. At the end of the round, 12 artists win their knockout, remaining on their teams, while four artists are stolen, and four are saved by their respective coaches. Unlike season 24, however, there are no super saves. In all, a total 20 artists advanced to the playoffs.[16]
