The 60th annual Grammy Awards will include a special tribute to victims of last year's multiple concert tragedies.

The Recording Academy on Thursday confirmed country artists Brothers Osborne, Eric Church, and Maren Morris—all of whom performed at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas—will perform in honor of those affected by the recent violent acts.

In addition to the horrific events in Vegas, 22 were killed during a terrorist attack at Ariana Grande's show in Manchester, England. The singer returned just days later to perform a star-studded benefit concert for victims.

"Live music events have always provided a safe space for fans to gather in a shared celebration of music. Sadly, that wasn’t always the case this past year," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of the Recording Academy. "We believe it’s incredibly important to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in these senseless tragedies and to remind musicians and music lovers alike that live music will continue to be a powerful force that unites us all."

They join previously confirmed performers such as Kendrick Lamar, U2, Sam Smith, Elton John, Miley Cyrus, Kesha, SZA, Alessia Cara, Khalid, Logic, Childish Gambino, Lady Gaga and Little Big Town.

This year's Grammys are set for Sunday, Jan. 28, airing live nationwide from New York City at 7:30 p.m. EST/4:30 p.m. PST on CBS.
