Carpool Karaoke released a new trailer for its upcoming season on Apple Music, and it features a lot of star power, including Blake Shelton, Dierks Bentley, Will Smith, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Shaquille O’Neal, John Cena, Metallica and more. The new show is based on The Late Late Show’s viral videos starring James Corden, who hosts a singalong in his car with a celebrity while they drive around Los Angeles.

While the new show borrows James’ concept, it will primarily feature celebrities who are paired together sans James—although James makes at least one appearance with Will Smith.

On the country music front, Blake Shelton is paired with Chelsea Handler while Dierks Bentley teams with Sheryl Crow.

The first season of Carpool Karaoke, which will feature 16 celebrity pairings, will stream on Apple Music each week beginning on Aug. 8.

Watch the new trailer below, which is set to Willie Nelson’s “On the Road Again.”
