What happens

Y Llais (Welsh for 'The Voice') is a Welsh-language singing reality competition television series. It premiered on S4C on 9 February 2025. Based on the original Dutch singing competition The Voice of Holland and part of The Voice franchise, it has aired two series and aims to find currently unsigned singing talent (solo or duets) contested by aspiring singers, drawn from public auditions. The show is originally presented by Sian Eleri. The winners receive the opportunity to record and release a professionally produced single, along with industry exposure and support from established Welsh artists and producers. The winners of each series have been: Rose Datta and Carrie Sauce. The series employs a panel of four coaches who critique the artists' performances and guide their teams of selected artists through the remainder of the series. They also compete to ensure that their act wins the competition, thus making them the winning coach. The original panel featured Sir Bryn Terfel, Bronwen Lewis, Aleighcia Scott and Yws Gwynedd In 2024, WalesOnline confirmed that the first series of the Welsh-language edition of The Voice was in production. Y Llais is produced by Boom Cymru, a subsidiary of ITV Studios. The first season aired on 9 February 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
