The sixth season of the American reality talent show The Voice premiered on February 24, 2014,[1] on NBC.

The Instant Save which first introduced last season returned with a new change which eligible artists performed an additional song.

[2] It was reported that Christina Milian, who served as the social media correspondent in seasons two through four, was open to returning,[3] but ultimately did not.

[13] A second special look at the season was premiered the following day, featuring Bria Kelly's full audition covering "Steamroller Blues".

[14] A third preview featuring Clarissa Serna's cover of The Cranberries' song "Zombie" was released on February 28, 2014, to promote the second week of the Blind Auditions.

Unlike the first round of The Battles, each team will share the same advisor, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.

The top twenty artists performed for the coaches; there was no public vote (hence no iTunes bonus or Instant Save) in the playoffs.

Color key: 2(Tuesday, April 8, 2014) ^1 Episodes airing on Monday had a running time of two hours.

For season six, the show expanded upon the "Instant Save" introduced in season five; once the three artists with the lowest vote totals are announced during the results show (except the Live Finale), each of those three artists sing an additional song before the Twitter voting window opens.

Upcoming coaches for season seven, Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams, performed "Hollaback Girl" and "Come Get It Bae" respectively.

The top three season five finalists, (Tessanne Chin, Jacquie Lee, and Will Champlin) debuted their newest singles during the results show.

This week's iTunes bonus multipliers was awarded to Jake Worthington (#3), Kaufman (#4), and Kristen Merlin (#6).

[31] With the victory of Josh Kaufman, this is the first time in The Voice history where a stolen artist won an entire season.
