Joss Stone and Hozier will headline the 8th annual Love Rocks NYC concert, Page Six can exclusively reveal.
We hear Conan O’Brien, Tracy Morgan and Jim Gaffigan will host the evening at the Beacon Theater on March 7.
The shindig has become a beloved annual event that raises money for God’s Love We Deliver.
The charitable organization, founded in 1985 during the AIDS pandemic, now cooks, packages and delivers more than 4 million medically tailored meals to thousands of New Yorkers too sick to shop and cook for themselves.
This year’s stellar lineup also includes The Black Keys, Nile Rodgers, Bettye Lavette, Tom Morello, Trombone Shorty and New York Yankees legend Bernie Williams, who has a second career as a jazz guitarist.
The music jamboree is the brainchild of Douglas Elliman broker Greg Williamson, concert producer Nicole Rechter and clothing designer John Varvatos.
