The so-summer-sounding “Greatest Hits” show airing on ABC this summer has unveiled its lineup of performers:

Atlanta's CeeLo Green is among a diverse list that also includes Andra Day, Pitbull, Rick Springfield, John Legend, Little Big Town, Meghan Trainor, Wilson Phillips, Wiz Khalifa, Coolio, Jason Derulo and REO Speedwagon.

The show will feature veteran music artists and current chart-toppers performing hits from the ‘80s, ‘90s and ‘00s. Each episode will focus on a five-year period in time and feature duets, tributes and solo performances.

The six-episode series, hosted by Arsenio Hall and Kelsea Ballerini, will air at 9 p.m. beginning June 30.
