Six choirs to compete in Pitch Battle final
One group will be named the winner in the live finale.
Six singing groups will fight it out to be named the winner of Pitch Battle on Saturday.
The final groups will go head to head in a live final as judges Gareth Malone and Kelis, along with guest judge Deke Sharon, whittle the remaining six down to two contenders.
The public vote will then determine the final winning choir.
Each week a different guest judge, including Seal, Chaka Khan and Will Young, has joined Malone and Kelis and all of them will return for the live final to sing with one of the groups.
The winners will receive a £50,000 prize and the title of Pitch Battle Champions.
Kelis hailed Leeds Contemporary Singers as “some extraordinary singers who are all equally really strong vocalists”.
Of All The King’s Men, she said: “They are young, they’re exciting, there’s something very fresh and very new about them,” while she said of Portsmouth University Gospel Choir: “They need to find the dynamics within them and know when to pull back and kind of doing it as a unit, I think that’s important.”
Of Sgarmes, she said: “I don’t want them to over-complicate things and I feel like there needs to be a little bit more technique added to them.”
