The Corrs To Perform At Queen's Golden Jubilee Celebration

LONDON, UK (London Times) - The Corrs will perform at London's Buckingham Palace on June 3 for the Party At The Palace, a free concert that is part of Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee Weekend celebration. The group is scheduled to perform two songs at the concert--a duet with Brian Wilson on the Beach Boys' classic, "God Only Knows," and their rendition of the Beatles' "The Long And Winding Road."

The Corrs are the only Irish act on the bill, which also includes Aretha Franklin (on tape), Elton John, Paul McCartney, Bryan Adams, Tony Bennett, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Joe Cocker, Tom Jones, Annie Lennox, Ricky Martin, Ozzy Osbourne, Cliff Richard, Rod Stewart, and Steve Winwood, among others.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the British throne. The Queen's Jubilee: Party At The Palace will air in the U.S. at 9 p.m. ET June 9 on VH1.

In related news, the Corrs are currently climbing the charts with their rendition of the Ryan Adams-penned ballad "When Stars Go Blue," a duet with U2 frontman Bono. The new single is from the Corrs' latest album, VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin. The track, which was produced by Mitchell Froom (Sheryl Crow, Paul McCartney), features Andrea Corr and Bono performing the duet accompanied by Sharon Corr, Caroline Corr, and Jim Corr, while backed by a full orchestra. Bono also accompanies the siblings on the album's track "Summer Wine."
