The Grammys are honoring Prince with a new star-studded special that will air on TV later this year. The special, Let's Go Crazy: The Grammy Salute to Prince, will be taped at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Jan. 28, two days after the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards.
There will be performances from Beck, Common, Gary Clark Jr., Earth, Wind & Fire, Foo Fighters, H.E.R., Juanes, Alicia Keys, John Legend, Coldplay's Chris Martin, Mavis Staples, St. Vincent, and Usher. Additionally, several of Prince's friends and collaborators, such as his band the Revolution, Sheila E., the Bangles' Susanna Hoffs, and Morris Day and The Time, will perform. Sheila E. will also serve as the night’s musical director alongside Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Longtime Grammys producer and executive producer of the special Ken Ehrlich said in a statement, "We've gathered a remarkable collection of artists across genres and across generations to salute one of music's truly singular iconic writer/performers, and believe me, it's a tall order to do him justice."
Tickets for the live taping of Let's Go Crazy: The Grammy Salute to Prince are available here. The special will air on CBS in April 2020.
