Nick Jonas has announced that he’s taking over one of the big red chairs on The Voice next season.

The 27-year-old shared the news during a taping of an episode of Ellen that aired Tuesday.

“I am so excited about this,” Jonas said.

He will replace Gwen Stefani for Season 18 of The Voice, which is scheduled to premiere in late February or early March of 2020. Jonas will tape the early episodes in January during a break from the Jonas Brothers’ Happiness Begins Tour, which wraps up Feb. 22.

The show’s only original coach, country singer Blake Shelton, will return. Kelly Clarkson and John Legend will be back for their fifth and third seasons respectively.

In a tweet on Tuesday, Jonas had a message for his fellow coaches. “While I’m excited to work with you guys, I’m coming for you,” he said. “I’m hoping for a season one win for team Nick.”

Last year, Joe Jonas was a coach on Season 7 of The Voice Australia.
