NBC’s reality-television singing competition series “The Voice” has announced their new virtual auditions for their upcoming season. The Voice is a four-time Emmy winning, reality television singing competition broadcast on NBC, featuring the nation’s most talented best unknown artists and four of the biggest names in music as coaches. Based on the original The Voice of Holland, the concept of the series is to find currently unsigned singing talent (solo or duets, professional and amateur ) contested by aspiring singers, age 15 or over, drawn from public auditions. The winner is determined by television viewers voting by telephone, Internet, SMS text, and iTunes Store purchases of the audio-recorded artists’ vocal performances. The winner receives $100,000 and a record deal with Universal Music Group.
They are looking for solo artists and duos that perform all types of music: pop, rock, R&B, hip-hop, alternative, latin, country, blues, indie. They want to know your story and why you are The Voice.
