Benefiting a number of veterans services groups in the United States, VetsAid 2020 will also feature James Hetfield, Jon Bon Jovi, Drew Carey, Alice Cooper, Brandon Flowers, Vince Gill, Darryl Hall, Ben Harper, Jason Isbell, Jewel, Richard Marx, Tim McGraw, Willie Nelson and the Boys, Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Billy Bob Thornton, Steven Van Zandt, and many more!
