Template:Infobox reality music competition The fifteenth season of the American reality The Voice premiered on September 24, 2018, on NBC. Adam Levine, Kelly Clarkson, and Blake Shelton returned as coaches from the previous season. Jennifer Hudson, who last coached in season 13, returned, replacing Alicia Keys. For the first time, the season will feature a fifth coach, Kelsea Ballerini, who will be The Comeback Stage.
Coaches and hosts
On 11 May, Kelly Clarkson confirmed she would return alongside Jennifer Hudson, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. Carson Daly will return for his fifteenth season as host. It was announced on September 10 that Kelsea Ballerini would become a fifth coach, mentoring unsuccessful auditioners in a new round called The Comeback Stage.
The Block, added in season 14, would return for a second season. A new round this season, entitled "The Comeback Stage", will see six artists who did not turn a chair in the Blind Auditions get a second chance to return to the competition for the live shows. The six artists remained, mentored by Kelsea Ballerini, will compete against each other in a digital companion series, with the winner securing a spot in the Top 13. For the first time, an element round was used in the Blind Auditions, known as "The Second Chance".
This season's advisors for the Battle Rounds are: CeeLo Green for Team Adam, Thomas Rhett for Team Kelly, Halsey for Team Jennifer, and Keith Urban for Team Blake.
