Sara Bareilles: The Sing-Off's New Judge!

Sara Bareilles is joining the judges’ table on the NBC talent competition The Sing-Off!

The 31-year-old singer and songwriter, along with fellow judges Ben Folds and Boyz II Men‘s Shawn Stockman, will try to find the best a capella group when the show’s third season, hosted by Nick Lachey, kicks off Monday, Sept. 19, at 8 p.m.

“A cappella music is very near and dear to my heart, and I have been a huge fan of the show from the beginning,” Sara said. “I love the opportunity to be a part of something that celebrates a genre of music that I just adore and believe in. I can’t wait for it to start.”

“Sara will bring a sublime technical knowledge and huge appreciation for The Sing-Off,” Paul Telegdy, NBC’s executive VP of alternative programming, added.
