Musicians Cee Lo Green and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine are the first two coaches named for NBC's upcoming singing competition series The Voice.

Green and Levine will be two of four famous musician coaches on the show who will select singers to mentor during the blind auditions. Carson Daly had previously been announced as host.

"Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine represent the essence of The Voice. They are two of the hottest music artists right now and their voices are instantly recognizable," said Paul Telegdy, EVP, alternative programming, NBC and Universal Media Studios. "These amazing artists are the perfect inspiration for our contestants to look up to as they begin their journeys from "voices" to true artists -- and any hopeful singer would be incredibly lucky to have either one as their coach."

The Voice premieres Tuesday, Apr. 26 at 9 p.m.
