A variety of well-known performers are set to take the stage in Washington D.C. for the upcoming presidential inauguration events. The Trump Vance Inaugural Committee recently announced the lineup, which includes artists such as Kid Rock, Jason Aldean, and Billy Ray Cyrus.

Kid Rock, a vocal supporter of President Trump, will be performing at the Make America Great Again Rally at Capital One Arena on Sunday. Joining him will be Billy Ray Cyrus, Lee Greenwood, The Village People, and a choir from Liberty University.

Jason Aldean, known for hits like “Try That in a Small Town,” is scheduled to perform at The Liberty Ball on Monday night. The Village People and a surprise musical guest will also be part of the lineup for this event.

The swearing-in ceremony on Monday will feature performances by Carrie Underwood singing “America the Beautiful,” opera tenor Christopher Maccio performing the National Anthem, and Lee Greenwood. Following the ceremony, there will be three inaugural balls.

Country group Rascal Flatts will be performing at the Commander-in-Chief Ball, which honors military service members. They will be joined by singer-songwriter Parker McCollum for this special event.

Gary LeVox, the frontman of Rascal Flatts, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to perform at the inauguration. He promised that it will be a memorable night and thanked South Dakota governor Kristi Noem for her support.

The Starlight Ball, catering to high-dollar donors, will feature a performance by Gavin DeGraw, known for his hit song “I Don’t Want to Be.” DeGraw’s music was famously used as the theme song for the popular TV show “One Tree Hill.”

Notably, Trump’s first inauguration in 2017 featured performances by the Rockettes, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and young singer Jackie Evancho from “America’s Got Talent.”
