Billie Eilish and Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong are among the artists who will participate in an hour-long, commercial-free musical event on Fox this Sunday (March 29th) at 9:00 p.m. ET.

Titled Fox Presents the iHeart Living Room Concert For America, the show will be hosted by Elton John and will raise money and awareness of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Other entertainers performing from home for the special include Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, Tim McGraw, the Backstreet Boys and more.

Billboard reported, “The performances will be filmed on the singer's personal cell phones, cameras and audio equipment in order to ensure the health and safety of the participants in this period of social isolation.”

Eilish and Green Day have both recently had to postpone tour dates due to the spread of the coronavirus, with Green Day's Armstrong sharing a cover of “I Think We're Alone Now” online earlier this week.
