Your Song | Preview (Channel 4)

Your Song will celebrate the nation’s hidden voices by giving non-professional singers the chance to perform a song that holds deep personal meaning to them. From love ballads passed down through generations to anthems that lifted spirits in difficult times, these powerful performances will take place on a pop-up stage equipped with a live house band.

Hidden from the singers during their performances, Paloma Faith and Sam Ryder will emerge to offer their expertise and heartfelt reactions. Alongside the mentors, host Alison Hammond will bring her trademark compassion, humour, and unique ability to connect with our singers – encouraging them to open up and tell their story.  

Alison Hammond: “I love the power that music and singing your heart out has, it can literally change your mood – put a smile on your face, make you sad, make you reminisce, so I’m really excited about this new show which is about real people telling us their stories, through song….let’s hit the road!”

Commissioning editors for Channel 4, Cimran Shah and Tim Hancock: “This show is going to be warm, joyful and feature some absolutely knock-out singers. Whether they're 7 or 70 years old, Your Song is all about celebrating the best unknown singing talent in Britain, we can't wait to see who steps onto stage.” 

Your Song begins Sunday 12th April at 9pm on Channel 4.
