Sharon Corr, Bressie, Kian Egan and Brian Kennedy are the coaches in the new Kathryn Thomas and Eoghan McDermott-presented music talent series The Voice of Ireland, which begins on RTÉ One on Sunday, January 8 at 6.30pm.
On Sunday evening viewers will see the first group of hopefuls sing for the coaches in 'blind' auditions - the quartet will not be allowed see the singers, only to hear them, as they choose who will be on their teams.
There will be five blind audition shows, which will be followed by three singing battle rounds and then the live performance shows will begin on March 4.
The live shows will run for nine weeks, with the public helping to decide who stays in the competition.
The final four contestants – one for each coach – will compete in the grand final for a recording contract with Universal Music.
