Mariah Carey, Gavin Rossdale, Nelly, Nas and LeAnn Rimes will perform as part of the free concert series, which is designed to promote Samsung's BlackJack II cell phone.
The tour kicks off July 31 in Los Angeles with Carey, who will give a 35-minute performance at the Hollywood & Highland Center. "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will broadcast part of the show later that night.
The concert series will then move on to other cities throughout the U.S., featuring a different artist in each location.
Three additional artists who will be announced shortly will play as part of Summer Krush in mid-September.
Samsung BlackJack II mobile phones will be on display at each show, during which concertgoers can learn about the phone and its music capabilities.
A limited number of free concert tickets will be available via the Summer Krush website, as well as radio promotions, fan clubs and street teams.
Last summer's inaugural Summer Krush featured performances from Ludacris, the Bravery and the All-American Rejects, among others.
Here is the lineup so far for this year's Summer Krush tour:
- July 31 - Los Angeles, Hollywood & Highland Center (Mariah Carey)
- Aug. 7 - Seattle, Showbox (Gavin Rossdale)
