BTS have joined the line-up for the upcoming Grammys' Music On A Mission virtual MusiCares fundraising event on March 12.

The “Dynamite” hitmakers - comprising RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook - join an already star-studded line-up for the upcoming fundraising show on March 12, in aid of the Grammys’ MusiCares Foundation.

A post on the MusiCares Twitter page read: "We’re excited to announce that the GRAMMY-Nominated #BTS (@bts_bighit) are joining our incredible lineup of #MusicOnAMission performers! Tickets are now available: https://support.musicares.org (sic)"

The concert is set to “honour the resilience of the music community, which has been deeply impacted by COVID-19."

Beatles legends Sir Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr will make a special appearance, alongside the likes of Carole King, Jonas Brothers, Lionel Richie, Macklemore, Mick Fleetwood and Shakira.

Haim, H.E.R., Jhene Aiko and John Legend are also on the bill.

In their mission statement, the non-profit organisation states that: "MusiCares provides a safety net of critical assistance for music people in times of need."

The Music On A Mission virtual gig comes ahead of the main Grammys event on March 14.

South Korean boy band BTS recently made history yet again by being the first K-Pop group to be nominated for a major award, as their smash hit track ‘Dynamite’ landed them a Best Pop Duo/Group Performance nod at the Grammys.

They previously scooped the Best Pop award at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards.
