Foo Fighters, Jennifer Hudson, And John Legend Set To Honor Mariah Carey At MusiCares Gala

MusiCares revealed on Tuesday (January 20) that Foo Fighters, Jennifer Hudson, and John Legend will lead the lineup of performers that will honor Mariah Carey at the organization’s Person of the Year gala on January 30th. The tribute concert at L.A. Convention Center also features Teddy Swims, Adam Lambert, Laufey, Maggie Rogers, Charlie Puth, Kesha, Taylor Momsen, and Billy Porter. Jermaine Dupri will provide a special DJ set, with Daniel Moore II serving as musical director. “I’m deeply honored to have these extraordinary artists come together for this evening,” Carey said in a statement. “Their generosity, their presence, and their commitment to this moment mean more to me than I can express.” The gala takes place two nights before the Grammy Awards and includes a live auction, cocktail reception, and dinner before the musical tribute. The event also serves as a fundraiser supporting MusiCares’ mission of providing assistance to the music community in times of need.
