  • Summary

  • In a genre-redefining first, Breakthrough is an electrifying, audio-only singing/songwriting competition series that strips away the superficial to reaffirm what matters most: pure talent. The captivating new Audible Original invites listeners on an intimate musical journey where it doesn't matter what you look like or who you know, just how you sound. Based solely on what they hear, expert celebrity judges Kelly Rowland (Destiny’s Child, The X Factor) and Sara Bareilles (Waitress, Into the Woods, Girls5eva) coach and evaluate five undiscovered artists as host Daveed Diggs (Hamilton, Blindspotting, The Little Mermaid) leads competitors through a series of high-stakes singing and songwriting challenges for one top spot.

    As musically gifted as they are artistically unique, each finalist is driven by the same dream: to become music’s next must-listen. But to break through, they’ll have to dig deep, pushing their vocal, songwriting, and recording chops to their absolute limits while keeping their feet (and emotions) firmly grounded. With Kelly and Sara leading the way, each contestant will discover just how bright their star can shine as they remind each of us that pure talent is never just a shot in the dark.

Great Music Audio Competition

I'm loving this competition. It's better than all the ones on TV for many reasons:

1. NO COMMERCIALS! No skipping needed as there aren't any commercials.
2. NO ANNOYING PROLONGED COMMENTS FROM THE JUDGES! Kelly and Sara are judges I guess, but they def feel more like coaches.
3. NO ELIMINATIONS! That's right, all these awesome people/singers get to stay every week. Each week is more about overall growth. The singers, who are all great, some are farther along in their journey than others, get to continually improve. There's no fear of your favorite not coming back next week because the all mighty judge said they don't like them.
4. IT'S NOT DRAWN OUT FOR THE SAKE OF ENTERTAINMENT! I hate how all the other shows try to draw on your heart strings by sharing sad stories. This one feels more up lifting and you really get to hear why a song is important and the musical struggles for each song. There is a little bit of sappiness, 'cause it's music, but it's not overwhelming.
5. ADDITIONAL GOODNESS: you don't have to listen to each person's full song. If you're like me I just want to hear the guts of the song. That being said, you can still go listen to the full songs on Amazon Music. You can listen AT WORK. I don't watch a lot of TV anymore, but I love singing competitions. So this is wonderful!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
