The 2024 Super Bowl LVIII promises to be an electrifying spectacle, and the musical lineup is no exception. Super Bowl LVIII is coming up faster than a cornerback chasing down a lineman lumbering away after a fumble recovery.
It’s the culmination of a season in which the defending champions struggled, Lamar Jackson made his case for a second MVP, too many teams lost QBs to injury, and the NFL offered wall-to-wall Taylor Swift coverage.
Here’s a rundown of the 2024 Super Bowl performers who will grace the stage:
2024 Super Bowl Performers
Usher: The R&B Legend Takes Center Stage
🎤 Usher headlines the Apple Music Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show. With a decades-long career, Usher’s smooth vocals and mesmerizing dance moves have left an indelible mark on the music industry. This isn’t his first Super Bowl rodeo—he previously wowed audiences alongside the Black Eyed Peas in 2011.
Now, he’s back to deliver a show unlike anything we’ve seen before. Expect roller skating, choreography, and thrilling guest appearances. Usher says it’s an “honor of a lifetime” to check this off his bucket list.
As with most halftime shows, details are scant before the performance. However, Usher did reveal that his performance will be longer than Super Bowl halftime shows in years past. Most halftime shows are clocked at 13 minutes, but Usher’s team got him 15.
He has not, however, tipped his hand as to what songs he’ll perform or who, if anyone, might pop up as a special guest. Halftime show performances frequently feature a litany of A-list musical guests, but that’s not always the case.

Reba McEntire: Country Royalty Sings the National Anthem
🎶 Reba McEntire, the iconic country music legend, performs the national anthem. Her powerful voice and timeless presence will set the tone for the game. Last year, Chris Stapleton owned the anthem, and now it’s Reba’s turn to shine.
It’s a fitting role for McEntire, as “The Star-Spangled Banner” has played a big role in her career. McEntire sang the national anthem at the 1974 National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City. That performance was heard by country singer Red Steagall, who was in the audience and helped finance her first recording, ultimately leading to her first record deal.
Post Malone: “America the Beautiful” Gets a Rockstar Twist
🎸 Post Malone graces the pre-game telecast with his unique blend of rock, hip-hop, and melodic prowess. His rendition of “America the Beautiful” promises to be soulful and electrifying. Last year, Babyface delivered a memorable performance, and Post Malone aims to follow suit.
The song has been part of the Super Bowl pre-game tradition since 2009. He is performing in the 2024 Super Bowl.
Andra Day: Elevating “Lift Every Voice and Sing”
🎵 The hymn known as the Black National Anthem, “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” will resonate through the stadium as Andra Day takes the mic. Her soul-stirring vocals pay homage to a rich cultural legacy. Sheryl Lee Ralph set the bar high last year, and Andra Day is poised to continue the tradition.
Day, who announced plans to release her third album this month, is the fourth singer to perform the song at the most-watched televised event in the U.S. Mary sang it in 2022, and last year, Abbott Elementary‘s Sheryl Lee Ralph had the honor. She is performing in the 2024 Super Bowl.
Tiësto: The Dance Music Maestro (canceled)
🕺 Electronic dance music aficionados, rejoice! Tiësto—the Dutch DJ and producer—will infuse the pre-game atmosphere with pulsating beats. His energetic set will keep fans grooving and set the stage for an unforgettable Super Bowl experience. He is performing in the 2024 Super Bowl.
“Me and my team have been preparing something truly special for months, but a personal family emergency is forcing me to return home Sunday morning,” Tiesto posted on social media. “It was a tough decision to miss the game, but family always comes first. Thank you to the @NFL for the collaboration and looking forward to working with them to deliver something incredible together in the future!”
Note: As the countdown begins, we eagerly await these sensational performances.
Let the music echo through the desert city, and may Super Bowl LVIII be etched in our memories forever. 🎶🏈🌟
