"It's been such a new, fulfilling challenge and I've been beyond inspired by the artists I've gotten to meet and work with. I can't wait for you to fall in love with them."

The show also dished on the news on social media, sharing a video explaining the concept of The Comeback Stage.

"In a Voice first, we have a fifth coach," the show's host Carson Daly says in a voiceover, explaining that the stage is an online series that will accompany the primetime show.

"I am so excited to be the first-ever fifth coach for the Comeback Stage," Ballerini says in the clip, sharing that she personally selected six artists who did not turn a chair during the Blind Auditions to return in the competition.

Ballerini will coach the artists through a series of Comeback Battles, with two earning the chance to compete for America's votes, with the winner earning a spot on The Voice's live shows that kick off in November. That artist will also be able to decide which coach's team they would like to join for the remainder of their time in the competition.
