The Voice is returning for Season 27 on Monday night on NBC, as the first round of Blind Auditions kicks off and the coaches start filling up their teams. Which new artists can we expect to see during the season premiere? Read on to find out more about them.
Renzo, whose full name is Dennis Lorenzo, describes himself as an alternative/R&B artist. He recently put out an EP titled RENZO VOL I: ANOTHER PART OF ME. When announcing that he auditioned for The Voice, he said it was “the hardest secret I’ve ever had to keep.”
On his Instagram, Ethan describes himself as “just some homie tryin’ to write songs about life.” He started out as a worship leader before his church closed in 2022 and he “fell in love with storytelling lyrics.” Ethan is married and welcomed a baby daughter with his wife last year.
This young singer frequently posts song covers on her TikTok, emulating artists such as Billie Eilish, Miranda Lambert, and the Beatles. She recently posted a video of new coach Kelsea Ballerini promoting the new season. Could this be a clue about whose team she’s on?
Iris Herrera
If Iris looks familiar, it’s probably because she auditioned for last season but didn’t get any chair turns. Now she’s back to try again. As she posted on Instagram, “SECOND CHANCES ARE REAL.” Will one of this season’s coaches turn for her? We’ll have to wait and see.
In his Instagram bio, Darius describes himself as “genre fluid.” He has several singles on streaming, and has been promoting a new song called “Love Me Harder,” out February 14. As he wrote when announcing he auditioned, “Come On Season 27 Let’s get sickening okkkkurrrrrrr.”
If you recognize Jadyn, it’s probably because her dad, Bryan Olesen, finished in third place on Season 25. She was there for Bryan’s audition, and the coaches encouraged them to sing together. Now Jadyn is trying out for the show on her own.
Dan shared on Instagram that appearing on The Voice is “one of my lifelong dreams,” as he first auditioned for the show back in 2013. He’s released several singles and is the creator of the NYC Queer Music Festival.
Today shared a preview of Angie’s audition when Kelsea Ballerini recently appeared on the morning show. Angie apparently performed one of Ballerini’s songs, inspiring the new coach to say she was “hitting notes that I don’t hit.” In another preview, Angie and Ballerini can be seen singing together.
Lilli is a musical theatre student who has a “passion for pop rock,” according to her online bio. She recently played Maureen in a production of the musical Rent. She also runs a small business called “The Drippie Hippie.”
This singer and guitar player is currently on tour playing Gregg Allman in the cast of the jukebox musical The Cher Show. He frequently posts clips of himself performing on social media, and he released a single called “E.T.A.” in 2023.
