Foo Fighters and Coldplay to honour Neil Diamond at a special gala gig.
The two heavyweight bands join Adele, John Mayer, Tim McGraw and actress Jennifer Hudson at the charity gala gig at Los Angeles Convention Centre on February 6, 2009.
All money raised will benefit the MusiCares program, which aids musicians in times of financial, medical and personal crisis, reports Rolling Stone.
Diamond, who will also perform, was named MusiCares 2008 Person Of The Year for his charitable work.
The veteran singer's most recent album 'Home Before Dark' hit Number One in the US chart in May. Diamond is being recognised for his exceptional artistic achievements as well as his philanthropic work.
The singer, who recently donated aid to the relief fund established in the wake of Hurricane Ike, joins past honorees Bono, Aretha Franklin and Brian Wilson.
