Netflix has announced a new music competition series titled 'Building the Band', featuring judges Nicole Scherzinger, Liam Payne, and Kelly Rowland, with AJ McLean as host. The show will allow individual singers to form their own bands while isolated in booths, where they will select bandmates based solely on musical compatibility and chemistry, without visual interaction. The concept aims to foster deeper connections among contestants, challenging them to create successful groups based on merit. Filming is set to begin this summer, with the release date yet to be announced. The series promises compelling performances and drama, culminating in an unforgettable competition to discover the next great music band. Executive producer Cat Lawson emphasized the innovative approach of prioritizing chemistry over appearances in band formation.
