Blake Shelton, Taylor Sheridan, Lee Metzger, and David Glasser have set up The Road singing competition series at CBS. The network’s given the unscripted series a fall 2025 series order, with details on who’s headlining the series still under wraps.
“I’m a big fan of Taylor’s incredible work, and I’m excited to team with him and my long-time collaborator, Lee, on The Road,” said Blake Shelton. “I know a thing or two about singing competitions and what it’s like to chase a music dream and live life on tour. I’m looking forward to discovering new talent and giving them this platform.”
Shelton, Sheridan, Metzger, and Glasser will be involved as executive producers. MTV Entertainment Studios, Glasser’s 101 Studios, and Shelton and Metzger’s Lucky Horseshoe Productions are producing.
“There is a revolution taking place in country music. Building a platform with Blake for the next leaders of that revolution is an incredibly exciting venture,” stated Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown). “No more shiny floors and studio audiences. This is where the rubber meets the road – literally. Get in the van, go to the next town and win the crowd. Do it enough, and you become the next leader. Simple as that.”
CBS offered this description of the new series: “The Road offers viewers a backstage pass into the gritty and unforgiving life of a touring artist. With exclusive access to the behind-the-scenes workings of the music industry, viewers will see what happens when some of the best up-and-coming performers pile into a tour bus and tackle a grueling schedule in pursuit of their dreams.”
Aspiring singers will join a touring artist and compete to win over local fanbases. If they do, they can remain on the tour.
