According to NBC, the singer will join The Voice as a coach when the network’s musical competition show returns for its eighteenth season in the spring of 2020. He’ll work alongside his fellow coaches Kelly Clarkson, John Legend and Blake Shelton, as well as host Carson Daly, to help foster and/or destroy the life-long dreams of the nation’s vocally talented. “I’m so excited to be a part of The Voice family,†he said in a statement. “It’s such an awesome group of individuals, and I can’t wait to help these artists really build and hone in to find their unique voices.â€
