DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA (AHN Sports) -- Rock superstar Lenny Kravitz has performed at venues all over the globe but on Feb. 26 he'll stand before more that 100,000 when he plays a pre-race concert before the Daytona 500.

Kravitz, a four-time Grammy Award winner, will perform the Daytona 500 Pre-Race Show, the pre-race extravaganza -- shown by FOX -- leading up to the start of "The Great American Race" at Daytona International Speedway.

"Lenny Kravitz is an iconic performer and multi-talented musician - he will deliver a rousing performance prior to the start of the 54th Daytona 500," Daytona International Speedway President Joie Chitwood III said. "Race fans will experience a first-class, heart-pounding pre-race show that will serve as the perfect prelude to what will be an historic and thrilling afternoon of NASCAR racing on the high banks of Daytona."

He has sold more than 35 million albums and is the only musician in history to win the Grammy for best male vocals in rock music four times consecutively.

The world-renown musician will perform three songs prior to the start of the 54th annual Daytona 500 - the season-opening event in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

Kravitz's ninth album, Black and White America, was released in 2011 and features a mixture of funk and hard rock hits like "Stand," "Rock Star City Life" and his new single "Push."

After a European tour, Kravitz recently kicked off his first American outing in five years in January. The 20-city tour will wrap up in Miami on Feb. 25.

Kravitz joins a long list of stars names that have performed in the Daytona 500 Pre-Race Show that includes Tim McGraw, Keith Urban, Bon Jovi, Kelly Clarkson, Mariah Carey and Brad Paisley.
