No Doubt, Usher & Mary J. Blige To Perform At 2015 Global Citizen Earth Day Concert
This year’s Global Citizen Earth Day concert is shaping up to be major! No Doubt, Usher and My Morning Jacket are set as headliners for the free event, which occurs four days before the official Earth Day. Other confirmed artists include Mary J. Blige, Train and Fall Out Boy.
Will.i.am and journalist Soledad O’Brien will host the event, and Common and Nigerian singer-songwriter D’banj are planning to make an appearance as well.
No Doubt, who performed in 2014, stated: “Last year, we rocked with 60,000 global citizens in Central Park, all committed to ending extreme poverty. We now help bring this movement to the nation’s capital, this time with a focus on climate change and its inexorable effect on the world’s poor. We owe it to our children to protect our planet and their futures.” The main headliner last year was Jay Z, who brought out Beyonce on stage with him.
Look out for the all-star event when it takes place on April 18th at Washington, D.C.’s National Mall.
