Van Morrison, the fifth and final nominee for Best Original Song, was also invited to perform “Down to Joy” from Belfast, but is unable to attend the Oscars “due to his tour schedule.”
The Oscars will also feature the first-ever performance of “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” from Encanto. Plus, Blink-182’s Travis Barker, Robert Glasper, Sheila E., and music director Adam Blackstone will serve as the evening’s house band, and DJ D-Nice will be on-hand to spin.
