9 musicians who are performing at Donald Trump's inauguration

President Donald Trump and Kid Rock in 2023.
  • Donald Trump is set to be sworn in as the next president of the United States on January 20.
  • Carrie Underwood, Village People, and Rascal Flatts have confirmed they'll be performing at inaugural events.
  • Other musicians such as Kid Rock and Gavin DeGraw were announced by the inaugural committee.

President-elect Donald Trump is set to be inaugurated on January 20, and his team has enlisted the help of some celebrity acts for the ceremony and related events.

The events are scheduled to run for four days, starting on Saturday, January 18. The inauguration has drawn donations from companies including Google, Amazon, and Meta.

Here are nine musical acts the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee announced will be performing at inauguration events.

Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood says she is "honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration."

"I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event," Carrie Underwood said in a statement to Business Insider on Tuesday. "I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future."

Underwood is set to perform "America the Beautiful" at the inauguration ceremony, the Presidential Inaugural Committee said.

The "American Idol" alum has largely tried to stay out of politics throughout her career.

"I feel like more people try to pin me places politically," Underwood told The Guardian in 2019. "I try to stay far out of politics if possible, at least in public, because nobody wins. It's crazy. Everybody tries to sum everything up and put a bow on it, like it's black and white. And it's not like that."

Lee Greenwood
Lee Greenwood has appeared at multiple Trump rallies over the year.

Greenwood, best known for his song "God Bless the USA," has long been affiliated with Trump, and has appeared at multiple rallies for Trump. He's set to perform at the Make America Great Again Victory Rally on Sunday, and then again at the swearing-in ceremony on Monday.

He confirmed on "Fox and Friends" that he'll perform "God Bless the USA" shortly before Trump is sworn in.

"This particular time, we have elected to be live with the United States Marine Corps band, and that's going to have a particularly majestic presentation of my song," he told the Washington Examiner. "It'll be a wonderful appearance."

A representative for Greenwood did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI.

Kid Rock
Kid Rock performed at the 2024 Republican National Convention last summer.

Kid Rock performed at the 2024 Republican National Convention last summer and appeared with Trump at a UFC fight in November, so it doesn't come as a surprise that he was tapped to celebrate him once again.

Rock will be one of multiple performers at the Victory Rally on Sunday.

A representative for the rapper did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI.

Village People
Village People announced on its Facebook page that it would perform at "various events" as part of the inauguration, even though their "preferred candidate lost."

On Monday, Village People, the '70s disco band known for hits like "Y.M.C.A." and "Macho Man," announced on its official Facebook page that it would be performing at "various events as part of the 2025 Inauguration of Donald J. Trump."

"We know this wont make some of you happy to hear however we believe that music is to be performed without regard to politics," the group's post read. "Our song Y.M.C.A. is a global anthem that hopefully helps bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign where our preferred candidate lost."

The official website for the Inaugural-Eve Ball, which is set to take place on January 19, features a photo of the group under a banner that says "Confirmed Performances."

The inaugural committee later confirmed the Village People would be performing at the Victory Rally on Sunday and the Liberty Inaugural Ball, one of three official inaugural balls, on Monday night.

The band's decision to perform at the inauguration events is a reversal of its stance from two years ago.

In 2023, the band's manager sent a cease-and-desist letter to Trump's lawyer, requesting that Trump stop using Village People's music and likeness at his events, following an "unauthorized" performance by a cover band at Mar-a-Lago.

"The performance has, and continues to cause, public confusion as to why Village People would even engage in such a performance," Karen Willis, the band's manager and wife of lead singer Victor Willis, wrote in the letter. "We did not."

A representative for Village People did not respond to a request for comment from BI.

Billy Ray Cyrus

Cyrus is confirmed to be performing at the Victory Rally on Sunday. This comes after the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer attended a Trump rally over the summer, as seen on Instagram.

His daughter, Miley Cyrus, has previously been a vocal critic of the president, calling him a "nightmare" in 2016, per People.

A representative for Billy Ray Cyrus did not have a statement for BI.

Rascal Flatts

Gary LeVox, the lead vocalist of Rascal Flatts, confirmed on social media that he would be performing with the band at the Commander-in-Chief Ball.

"I am so humbled and honored and grateful for the opportunity again to play the inauguration of the 47th President of the United States. I got to play it in 2016 and now Rascal Flatts will be performing at the commanders ball and I am so looking forward to it!" LeVox wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday.

The band — known for hits such as "Life is a Highway" and "What Hurts The Most" — disbanded in 2021 but announced last year that they would be coming together for a reunion tour to celebrate their 25th anniversary.

LeVox previously performed at the Veterans Inaugural Ball in 2017 without his members.

A representative for LeVox did not respond to a request for comment from BI.

Jason Aldean
Jason Aldean has been a vocal supporter of Trump.

Aldean, who Trump called a "fantastic guy" in 2023, is set to perform at the Liberty Ball alongside the Village People and a "surprise musical guest."

The "Try That in a Small Town" musician has played at Mar-a-Lago on New Year's Eve at least twice, per Country Now.

A representative for Aldean did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI.

Parker McCollum
Parker McCollum is a country musician.

McCollum has been releasing music since 2013, and had something of a breakthrough in the last couple of years. His single "Burn It Down" was nominated for song of the year at the 2024 CMA Awards.

He will be performing at the Commander-in-Chief Ball, the second of three official inaugural balls.

A representative for McCollum did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI.

Gavin DeGraw
Gavin DeGraw is best known for singing the "One Tree Hill" theme song.

DeGraw, known for songs such as "I Don't Want to Be," "In Love with a Girl," and "Not Over You," will be performing at the final official ball of the evening, the Starlight Ball.

A representative for DeGraw did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI.
