St. Vincent, Beck, and the Foo Fighters are among several artists who have paid tribute to Prince by covering some of his songs for the CBS special Let’s Go Crazy: The Grammy Salute to Prince.
A couple of nights after the Grammys, the show’s producers put together a Prince tribute concert with a slew of Grammy-staple artists, and last night, on the third anniversary of Prince’s death, CBS aired the special. During the performance, The Revolution backed artists like Mavis Staples, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs, H.E.R., and more.
Check out some of the performances below.
