The agreement will see Greenberg create competition formats around an array of musical genres, with two shows already on the slate.

The Protege (working title) follows 10 famous musicians who return to their home towns to find new artists, while The Music Makers (working title) explores the work of creatives who turn everyday items into unusual instruments.

Greenberg, who was behind The Sing Off for NBC, will work with Pilgrim’s chief commercial officer Johnny Gould and development chief Nicola Silveira on the development slate.
