Grammy-winning artist Jon Batiste will perform the national anthem at Super Bowl LIX, set to take place in New Orleans on February 9, 2025. The Louisiana native will open the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles.

Multi-talented performer Jon Batiste will take the stage to sing the national anthem before the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles clash in the 2025 Super Bowl on Sunday, February 9th in New Orleans . The multi-Grammy winner is slated to kick off the game at 6:30 p.m. EST. Batiste expressed his hope last month to Entertainment Tonight that his performance 'lasts the test of time.' Jon Batiste , a 38-year-old Grammy and Oscar winner, is a household name.

He gained prominence as the bandleader for 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' from 2015 to 2022 and co-composed the score for Pixar's animated film 'Soul.' Hailing from New Orleans, Batiste's musical journey began at the tender age of 8 when he joined the Batiste Brothers Band on drums, showcasing his innate talent. He honed his skills further at the prestigious Juilliard School in New York, where he mastered not only drums but also piano, keyboard, melodica, and guitar. Batiste's recent documentary 'American Symphony' garnered him another Grammy Award for best music film this month, along with a win for best song written for visual media for his poignant track 'It Never Went Away.' This accomplishment adds to his impressive seven Grammy Awards throughout his illustrious career. Last year's Super Bowl saw country music legend Reba McEntire deliver a captivating rendition of the national anthem. As Batiste takes the stage this year, he'll be joined by fellow Louisiana natives Trombone Shorty and singers Lauren Daigle and Ledisi, who will perform 'America the Beautiful,' and 'Lift Every Voice and Sing' respectively. The halftime show will feature a stellar performance by rapper Kendrick Lamar and singer SZA. For those who prefer to experience the event through sign language, actor Stephanie Nogueras will interpret the national anthem and 'America the Beautiful,' while Otis Jones IV and Matt Maxey will sign 'Lift Every Voice and Sing' and the halftime show respectively. Super Bowl LIX will air on Fox, marking the first time Fox News will be live-streaming the major sporting event on Tubi
