The 15-time Grammy Award winner, singer, songwriter, musician, and forever it-girl will join a star-studded line-up of musical legends, including Sting and John Legend, who will also be performing during the series.

On 17 February, Alicia Keys stans can sing along to nostalgic tracks including ‘Fallin’, ‘No One’, ‘Girl on Fire’, and more. We don’t know about you, but that sounds like all our teenage girl fantasies come true.
