Season Four of The Sing-Off is set to premiere on December 9, 2013. The number of singing groups has decreased from 16 to 10, and has returned to a 7-episode holiday special. Nick Lachey is set to return as host, as well as Ben Folds and Shawn Stockman at the judging table. Jewel debuts at the judging table, replacing Season Three judge Sara Bareilles. The season is expected to conclude on December 23, 2013.
Twists/Changes[]
- Holiday Special Format- Since being expanded to a season-long weekly competiton in Season Three, the show will return to a smaller scale, 7-episode format featuring only ten groups, and airing within two weeks.
- New Judge-Singer-songwriter Jewel is being added to the judging panel, following the departure of former judge, Sara Barielles.
- Ultimate Sing-Off- After being used periodically in Season Three, this now regular twist will require the bottom 2 groups to sing for their fate at the end of each episode. They will sing the same song, and the judges will decide which a cappella group performed best.
