Adam Levine is officially making his return to The Voice. NBC announced on June 5, 2024, that the Maroon 5 frontman will rejoin the series for its 27th season set to air in spring 2025. After departing the show unexpectedly in 2019, Levine is set to bring his experience back to the coaching panel.
Levine was an original coach on The Voice and spent 16 seasons on the show before taking a break. When asked by fans in a 2020 Q&A if he ever planned to return, Levine replied curtly, Not thank you!
However, it seems like time away has changed his perspective; he’s now ready to rejoin the fold.
Meet the Season 27 Coaches
The Voice’s coaching panel for Season 27 will include a mix of familiar faces and exciting new additions.
Kelsea Ballerini will be making her debut as a full-time coach on The Voice. She has previously served as a battle advisor and even stepped in as a temporary coach for Team Kelly Clarkson during Season 20. Ballerini is also well-known for her advisory role in Season 16.
John Legend returns for what will be his tenth season. Legend took a break during Season 26 but continues to be one of the show’s favorite coaches since he joined. His expertise has led many contestants to success.
Michael Bublé, after debuting alongside Snoop Dogg in Season 26, continues as a coach for Season 27. Known for his smooth vocals and engaging stage presence, Bublé brings a fresh dynamic to the panel.
A Look Back at Levine’s Legacy
The Voice veteran Adam Levine first joined in its inaugural season in 2011. Over his tenure, Levine won three times: with Javier Colon in Season 1, Tessanne Chin in Season 5, and Jordan Smith in Season 9. This illustrious track record makes him one of the most successful coaches in the show’s history.
Why Levine Left
Levine left The Voice to focus more on his family and other commitments. He explained in an interview with Howard Stern that he was ready for a change after nearly a decade of juggling his band Maroon 5 and the show. He shared similar sentiments on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, expressing gratitude for having time to spend with his young family.
The Next Chapter Begins
The announcement of Levine’s return also featured a heartfelt Instagram video where Levine reveled in the support from fans and friends alike, including fellow long-time coach Blake Shelton who enthusiastically called for his return. Yeah, we’re back, I’m coming back. Season 27. Yes, I’m coming back. I’m so excited. I cannot wait,” said Levine.
