Chart-topping country duo, Dan + Shay, known individually as Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney, are slated to step into the spotlight as the series' first-ever coaching pair, in a bold departure from the traditional single coach format.
This Grammy-winning team, known for their hit You, are ready to bring their unique perspective and immense talent to the next generation of singing sensations.
The duo could barely contain their excitement as they took to Instagram to share the good news, exclaiming: "SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT WE WILL BE JOINING @nbcthevoice IN 2024 AS THE FIRST COACHING DUO!"
Airing next year, season 25 will see Dan + Shay join the established coaching ranks of music industry titans John Legend, Chance the Rapper and country legend Reba McEntire.
However, this won't be the duo's first taste of The Voice action. They previously lent their expertise to season 20 contestants as Battle Advisors for long-standing coach Blake Shelton.
