For those of you who may not already know, The Sing-Off is a televised a capella singing contest in which vocals-only groups compete for a recording contract. The show, hosted by the oh-so-handsome Nick Lachey, tends to feature awesome a capella cover performances of recently recorded or well-loved songs. Last season’s winners, Pentatonix, recently toured America and have already released a successful album. Joining Jewel at the judges table are returning judges, Shawn Stockman of BoyzIIMen and Grammy-winning singer/composer/piano playing madman Ben Folds. Jewel will replace former judge Sara Bareilles.
This won’t be Jewel’s first television stint. She has previously appeared on The Voice, Platinum Hit, America’s Got Talent and Nashville Star.
