All The Musicians Who Are Slated To Perform At Trump’s Inauguration

Country music superstar Carrie Underwood is among the performers set to take part in the 2025 presidential inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump. The Grammy winner is confirmed to sing “America The Beautiful” when Trump is sworn in for his second term as president on January 20, 2025, in Washington DC.

Representatives for Trump confirmed on January 13 that the “Before He Cheats” singer will be joined by the Armed Forces Choir and United States Naval Academy Glee Club.

Underwood, 41, was the headliner of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest on December 31. The Oklahoma native came to fame after winning American Idol in 2005, and has since earned six platinum albums, eight Grammy Awards and five CMA Female Vocalist of the Year Awards. She’s thrice been named the ACM Awards Entertainer of the Year, the most of any female artist.

The Village People are also on board to perform at Trump’s inauguration celebrations next week. The disco-era band’s late 1970s hit “YMCA” — widely considered a gay anthem — was prominent on the 2024 presidential campaign trail. The song also spawned a signature dance by the president-elect.

The group’s longtime frontman Victor Willis (who plays the cop character) confirmed on social media on January 13 that they would appear at several parties in Washington, despite their difference in political ideologies.

“Our song YMCA is a global anthem that hopefully helps bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign where our preferred candidate lost,” the 73-year-old crooner wrote on Facebook. “Therefore, we believe it’s now time to bring the country together with music.”
