Channel 7 has announced that a brand new music quiz show is in production. Based on French television format from Endemol Shine, The Big Music Quiz will give Aussie music fans a chance to test their music knowledge and is being touted as the next generation music show.
The new show is to be hosted by ex-The Voice presenter Darren McMullen and will feature celebrities battling it out in individual and team music trivia challenges. According to a statement, challenges will “come thick and fast while a live audience brings the noise in this massive, freewheeling musical extravaganza.”
There will also be an app developed to be released in conjunction with the show going to air, which will allow viewers to answer questions and play along at home while they watch.
Endemol Shine Australia CEO, Mark Fennessy, said: “The Big Music Quiz is the next generation music entertainment show. A raucous, multi- platinum party featuring famous faces, hit songs and the biggest riffs on the planet. No matter how old you are, what artists you love, what lyrics you relate to or what melodies you’ve hummed, The Big Music Quiz is solid gold.”
Production on The Big Music Quiz will begin in Melbourne next month.
