The snappily-titled gig In Performance at the White House: A Celebration of Music from the Civil Rights Movement is set to take place on Wednesday...Thursday over here...and will see the pair perform on a bill that already includes Smokey Robinson and John Mellencamp.

The concert will be streamed live via the whitehouse website
