ABC has officially added a trio of contemporary performers — and an entertainment icon — to its “The Wonderful World Of Disney: Disneyland 60” lineup.

Per the ABC release, Little Big Town, Ne-Yo, and Fall Out Boy are set as performers. Little Big Town performs “Steve McQueen,” Ne-Yo is involved in a show-stopping song and dance rendition of “Friend Like Me,” while Fall Out Boy will deliver “I Wanna Be Like You.”
