Banding together to impress


In the first episode of the new season, each contestant performed for the six celebrity coaches, who then delivered a rating. The contestants can choose their bandmates, but those chosen have the right to say no.
The six celebrity coaches are pianist Lang Lang, cellist Ouyang Nana, singer-songwriters Pu Shu and G.E.M. Tang Tsz-kei, lead vocalist and songwriter Liang Long of Chinese rock band Second Hand Rose, and Zhou Zhennan from the boy band, R1SE.
Pu says on the show: "I want to communicate with young people and to learn what they are thinking about. I am impressed by the young contestants, who are very real and enthusiastic.
"They are young and keen on making music without any boundaries."
The 46-year-old singer-songwriter has shied away from the limelight since releasing his last album, Orion, in 2017.
