Joe Walsh Zac Brown Serve Mega Mentors The Voice Season 28

Season 28 of NBC's The Voice features rock legends Zac Brown and Joe Walsh as Mega Mentors during the Knockouts round. Brown, frontman of the multi-Grammy-winning Zac Brown Band, mentors contestants on teams led by Michael Bublé and Snoop Dogg, while Walsh, guitarist for the Eagles and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, mentors teams coached by Niall Horan and Reba McEntire. The Knockouts round starts October 27, with each coach having eight artists and no saves or steals, making the competition particularly intense. This season introduces a "Mic Drop" button allowing coaches to highlight standout performances, with viewers voting for one winner who will perform at the Rose Parade on January 1, 2026. Zac Brown Band is notable for their upcoming residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas, and Joe Walsh is recognized for his extensive career and philanthropic work with veterans. Both mentors bring substantial musical expertise to support contestants advancing to the Playoffs, the final round before live shows.
