Wonder has recently been on the road, playing his classic 1976 double album Songs in the Key of Life in its entirety, so expect that much (or all) of that album will be performed at the show. This tribute follows last year's GRAMMY tribute to the Beatles that was held the night after the 56th Annual GRAMMY Awards, and which Wonder himself performed at.
