How to Watch ‘The Road’: When Are New Episodes Out?
It’s time for 12 emerging country music stars to hit the road opening up for Keith Urban.
CBS’s latest music competition series “The Road” puts rising musicians to the real test. From executive producers Taylor Sheridan, Lee Metzger, David Glasser, Blake Shelton and Urban, this series differs from the other karaoke-style shows on the market.
Rather than judges giving feedback to contestants, it is the audience that decides which artists won them over. Each singer-songwriter performs original music every episode, and they are responsible for winning over a room of fans waiting for Urban’s headlining performance.
Every episode fans in attendance vote for their favorite new artists, and mentors Urban and Shelton pick which one from the bottom three will go home. Contestants hit the road to different venues across Texas, Oklahoma and Tennessee this spring.
