New York -- Alicia Keys and Rod Stewart will join previously announced performers Joss Stone, Rob Thomas, Queen Latifah and John Legend when "Save The Music: A Concert To Benefit The VH1 Save The Music Foundation" will air on VH1 Sunday, April 17 at 9pm. Continuing in the tradition of events to benefit VH1's Save The Music Foundation, the star-studded concert will tape at New York City's famed Beacon Theatre on Monday, April 11. Additional performers and special guests will be announced shortly.

VH1 "Save The Music: A Concert To Benefit The VH1 Save The Music Foundation" is executive produced by Joel Gallen and Lee Rolontz; directed by Joel Gallen; Ray Winkler is the Production Designer; Allen Branton is the Lighting Designer.

Baileys, L'Oreal Paris, Crest Whitening Expressions, Mercedes, Pantene, Always, Listerine Pocketpaks and Chrysler Brand are sponsors of the VH1 "Save The Music" concert.
