Events will also feature Nick Cannon, fun., Marc Anthony, Smokey Robinson and members of the Glee cast, among others yet to be announced.
Already announced was that Beyonc é, James Taylor and Kelly Clarkson will perform at the inauguration ceremony Jan. 21 on the West Front of the U.S. Capitol.
Beyoncé makes a return trip to star in Obama's inaugural festivities after serenading the President and First Lady during their first dance at the Neighborhood Ball in 2009 with the Etta James classic "At Last."
This time around, the PIC is hosting two official balls: the Commander-in-Chief’s Ball for members of the U.S. military, and the Inaugural Ball, which brings members of the public together with local leaders.
