Stevie Wonder tribute set for week after Grammys
Chris Martin, Ed Sheeran, Janelle Monáe among artists paying tribute to the legendary funk/soul musician.
In the manner of last year's The Beatles: The Night That Changed America, the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences will present a tribute to Stevie Wonder titled Stevie Wonder: Song in the Key of Life - An All Star Grammy Salute the week after the Grammys.
Coldplay's Chris Martin, Ed Sheeran, Willie Nelson, Usher and Janelle Monáe are among the artists currently slated to perform Wonder's music at the tribute, with others yet to be announced.
Wonder appeared at last year's Beatles tribute with a spirited rendition of 'We Can Work it Out' and performed with Daft Punk, Pharrell and Nile Rodgers at last year's Grammys. He is currently on tour playing his classic 1976 album Songs in the Key of Life in its entirety.
The televised tribute will air on February 16.
