Although The Voice puts its main focus on the contestants trying to make it into the music industry, their performances get some help from the show’s backup singers. Overall, the performances featured on the show would not be the same without the help of these backup vocalists. That’s because these singers in the background help each artist during their live performances, no matter what team the artist belongs to. So, here’s everything to know about the backup singers.

Primarily, NBC’s The Voice revolves around the artists that have entered the competition, but the fans should know that the backup singers play a major part in the performances as well. The presence of these additional singers makes the artists seem like they are performing at their own concert instead of on live TV and in a reality competition. In addition, the fans may not realize is that backup singers put in just as much work as the artists do to prepare for the live rounds.

According to an interview with NPR, during the live shows on The Voice, the rehearsals begin at 3pm in a studio inside the Universal lot. This is where the contestants, the band, and the crew do a run-through of what they will perform that night. The same NPR report indicates that the backup singers and the band on the show need to be very versatile. On any given night, the contestants can perform a range of different music styles and genres.

Despite the fact that the fans aren’t always able to see them during the performances, the backup vocalists on The Voice are always on stage behind the singer, sometimes in the dark. These vocalists have backed some big names in the music industry, so they are no strangers at all to sharing the limelight. With everyone being on stage together to make sure the performances go well, each of the vocalists and the band communicate through headsets, making the necessary adjustments between songs. So, as much as viewers think the show relies just on the contestants, the show uses as many people as necessary, including the backup singers, to make sure that the performances are up to standard for when the live show goes live.

While The Voice focuses on contestants and their work with the coaches, the behind-the-scenes crew puts in just as much work to make sure that they stand out amongst the others in the competition. It takes a lot of practice and work to make sure that everything in the competition seems right. But with it being live television, anything could happen.
