Kid
Rock, a longtime Trump supporter, and Billy Ray Cyrus will join
Lee Greenwood and The Village People at the Make America Great
Again Rally at Capital One Arena in downtown Washington on
Sunday, along with a choir from Liberty University.
“The pageantry is wonderful. I’m excited about all of that,”
Greenwood told The Associated Press Wednesday morning. “I’m
excited to sing yet again for President of the United States and
particularly my friend Donald J. Trump.”
Aldean, a five-time Grammy nominee behind the controversial song
“Try That in a Small Town,” is set to perform at The Liberty
Ball on Monday night, alongside The Village People and a
“surprise musical guest.”
The swearing-in ceremony Monday will feature previously
announced performers Carrie Underwood, who is singing “America
the Beautiful,” opera tenor Christopher Maccio performing the
National Anthem and Greenwood. Following are three inaugural
balls.
“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,”
Underwood said in a statement Monday.
Country group Rascal Flatts will be at the Commander-in-Chief
Ball, focused on military service members, with Texas-based
singer-songwriter Parker McCollum.
Rascal Flatts frontman Gary LeVox wrote on Instagram that he was
“happy and humbled and grateful for the opportunity.” LeVox
played at Trump’s first inauguration and promised that it will
be a “night to remember,” thanking South Dakota governor Kristi
Noem in his post.
The Starlight Ball, focused on high-dollar donors, will feature
a performance from Gavin DeGraw, a singer-songwriter best known
for the song “I Don’t Want to Be,” which was used as the theme
song for the CW show “One Tree Hill.”
Trump’s first inauguration in 2017 featured performances from
the Rockettes, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and 16-year-old
“America’s Got Talent” singer Jackie Evancho.
