Goulding will reportedly be working with coach Adam Levine, Jonas will be helping coach Christina Aguilera's team, Trainor will be lending a hand to coach Blake Shelton's team, and Richie will be assisting coach Pharrell Williams.
Goulding is known for multiple smash hits such as "Burn" and "Lights." Jonas' music career just recently exploded with his song "Jealous." Trainor came onto the scene with her massive hit "All About That Bass." Richie is not new to The Voice role, as he previously served as a mentor for "Team Christina" during the show's second season.
Each mentor works with a specific coach's team of artists during the infamous "Battle Round" phase of the reality singing competition, which follows the initial "Blind Auditions."
The lineup of coaches remains the same next season except for the return of Aguilera, who's replacing Gwen Stefani.
Aguilera had starred on The Voice's first three seasons before taking a break in Season 4 to spend time with her son and concentrate on her music career. The singer returned to serve as a coach for Season 5 but then took two more seasons off, during which she welcomed a daughter Summer Rain in August.
Levine and Shelton have been mainstay coaches on The Voice since the show debuted in Spring 2011. Williams will be keeping his seat and coming back for his second stint on the show.
The eighth season of The Voice is set to premiere on Monday, February 23.
