Adam Levine will return to 'The Voice' as a coach for season 30

Adam Levine is officially returning to coach another season of The Voice. 

The singer served as a coach on the series during its first season and continued for 16 seasons. Levine then stepped away from the reality competition show in May 2019 and returned for season 27 in 2025. He was not a coach on season 28 but returned for season 29. 

People exclusively revealed on Tuesday, April 14, that Levine would be a coach for the upcoming 30th season. The rest of the coaching panel has yet to be revealed. 

Levine had previously spoken to the outlet about returning to the show for season 27 where he said “the stars aligned.”

“It was one of those moments where we started talking about it and it felt right... and it hadn’t felt right until now,” Levine said at the time.

Levine also said in an interview with People in 2025, that when he stepped away from The Voice he had, “plenty of time to not be on the show, and to do my thing, and to not have that define me, for lack of a better way of saying it. It was nice to go and just be with my family, and go tour, and do music, and do what I was originally in my mind intended to do: make music and play music.”

The official announcement of Levine’s return follows the contestant he coached, Alexia Jayy, winning season 29 on Tuesday, April 14. Levine had coached contestants to victory on season 1, season 5, and season 9 as well.
