The Final
All four acts perform with a special guest of their choice with the top three acts being voted through on public vote only to a second performance on the night. After a second count of public vote only, one act will be crowned The Voice of Ireland and win a recording contract with Universal Music. Presented by Kathryn Thomas.
Series Overview
The Voice of Ireland will return for a fourth series on Sunday 4thJanuary 2015 with two new ladies joining the coaching panel who between them have 11 chart topping albums and 24 singles – Una Foden and Rachel Stevens. Both pop stars have toured the world as part of chart topping bands The Saturdays and S Club 7.
They will join our Voice of Ireland stalwarts, Kian Egan and Bressie, on the spinning red chairs as each of the four coaches pick their top 14 acts to perform in the Battle stages. Having picked two previous winners – Pat Byrne and Brendan McCahey, Bressie is looking for a winner by changing his game plan this year and he has decided to add more contemporary singers to his team. Despite the fact Kian has yet to pick a winner, it’s clear contestants like his mentoring style. As it’s his fourth series, will all this experience mean he is in with a fighting chance this year?
Rachel has the unenviable position of sitting between Bressie and Kian, they are a noisy pair but when she wants an act she pulls no punches. Una tells us ‘I’ve had so many doors slam in my face and felt it was never going to happen’ she’s been there, done that. Surely the perfect pitch to fill her team. One thing is for sure all four coaches are in it to win it.
