Attention all coaches from The Voice: please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to (a.k.a. keep singing).

Teaming up for an ad to promote the upcoming season of the popular reality competition singing show, Blake Shelton and the gang melted their eclectic vocals together for a smooth rendition of TLC’s iconic hit, “Waterfalls.” While Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Alicia Keys and Adam Levine have all lent their voices to the show, the acoustic cover marked the first time they’ve performed together as a group and boy, do they make some sweet music.

Stefani added her pop-ska flair to open up the classic R&B track with Keys following right behind to bring the soul factor up a notch. Levine sounded as smooth as butter when he took over the lyric, before Shelton gave some country depth with his unique styling sprinkled on top. But at the end of it all, their harmonies defined the performance with their powerful niches atop one another.

The video also showed off how much fun these coaches truly do have with one another, as another season marks another few months of hang time for the four to grow even deeper in their friendships throughout the friendly competition.

Season 12 of NBC’s The Voice premieres on Monday, February 27, at 8 p.m. ET.
