Netflix’s Building the Band, an unscripted musical competition series, has signed up Pussycat Dolls, One Direction, and Destiny’s Child alum as judges. Nicole Scherzinger, Liam Payne, and Kelly Rowland will judge the competition, with Scherzinger serving as a mentor. Plus, Backstreet Boys will be represented by AJ McLean as host.
“Building the Band brings together talented singers for a truly unique competition show where building the perfect band is all about chemistry. The singers are in complete control as they seek to form their very own bands in individual ‘booths’ without ever seeing each other,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “All they have to go on is musical compatibility, connection, chemistry, and merit. What will happen when the bands finally meet, and looks, choreography, and style come into play? With incredible performances, compelling drama, and one big goal—to find the next great music band—the stage is set for an unforgettable experience.”
Filming is expected to begin soon. Netflix hasn’t announced a premiere date.
The new series is executive produced by Cat Lawson, Alison Holloway, Katrina Morrison, Clara Elliot, and Simon Crossley. Remarkable Entertainment, Banijay UK produces the series.
“Building the Band is a brave and bold undertaking for all involved as we hand over power to the singers themselves to form their own band based on chemistry first. With looks out of the equation, can they create a deeper connection with their bandmates? With limited bands, there are difficult decisions and heart-stopping moments along the way, but ultimately, the outcome is truly amazing, with bands forming, who in my opinion, are worthy of the very biggest stage!” stated Cat Lawson, Executive Producer, Remarkable Entertainment, Banijay UK.
