Paul Simon is set to headline the 10th annual \u201cLove Rocks NYC\u201d concert.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Grammy winner, 84, is on somewhat of a comeback after announcing in 2023 that it had become \u201cextremely\u201d unlikely he would ever perform live again, following the loss of most of his hearing in his left ear.<\/p>\n

But last year, the \u201cGraceland\u201d crooner shared that his hearing had unexpectedly improved<\/a> thanks to help from Stanford researchers \u2014 so much so that he\u2019s embarking on a tour this summer.<\/a><\/p>\n

Simon isn\u2019t the only musical superstar set to appear.<\/p>\n

The all-star lineup is set to include Elvis Costello, Mary J. Blige, Linda Perry, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Susanna Hoffs, and Trombone Shorty. Celebrity announcers include Jeff Ross, Julianne Moore and \u201cCurb Your Enthusiasm\u201d alum JB Smoove.<\/p>\n

The cherished New York charity makes and delivers medically tailored meals to New Yorkers who are too sick to shop and cook for themselves. Last year, the staff and thousands of volunteers cooked, packaged and delivered 4 million meals to 15,000 New Yorkers.<\/p>\n
