Carrie Underwood will perform “America the Beautiful” at U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Trump’s transition team confirmed the news to political outlet Axios on Monday (Jan. 13), also adding that the Armed Forces Chorus and the United States Naval Academy Glee Club will accompany her during her performance at the event.
A program of the events scheduled for Trump’s inauguration was also circulating social media on Monday, listing Underwood’s appearance as a part of the ceremony.
According to that program, Underwood will be performing directly before Trump takes the Presidential Oath of Office.
Trump’s inauguration ceremony will take place on Inauguration Day, which is Jan. 20.
