Here's everyone performing at the presidential inauguration

[Jilly_in_VA]

President-elect Donald Trump is scheduled to be sworn into office on Jan. 20 — and unlike his first inauguration in 2017, which reportedly struggled to book high-profile performers, several well-known artists will partake in this year's inaugural events.

"The Trump Vance Inaugural Committee is proud to announce that some of our nation's most iconic [musicians] will be participating in the inaugural celebrations," said co-chairs Steve Witkoff and Kelly Loeffler in a statement provided to NPR. "This monumental weekend will commemorate President Trump's historic victory and the 60th Presidential Inauguration with a celebration of music, unity, and patriotism, ushering in America's new Golden Age."

Below is a list of the artists scheduled to perform throughout inaugural events, not including a surprise musical guest set to appear at the Liberty Ball.

Carrie Underwood
Christopher Macchio
Lee Greenwood
Kid Rock
Village People
Billy Ray Cyrus
Liberty University's Praise Choir
Jason Aldean
Rascal Flatts
Parker McCollum
Gavin DeGraw

So you know who to boycott, if you weren't already. Note that MILEY CYRUS has been openly critical of the orange slime.

1. Low brow and worse entertainers.

What a shit show and idiots are paying millions of dollars to go to it.

[Think. Again.]

4. They're paying for favors, not a show.

It's called "bribery".

[Think. Again.]

2. Oh, all has-beens, interesting.

[wnylib]

13. All except Carrie Underwood.

[Think. Again.]

14. She was on that tv show, something about talent, or idols, right?

[Jilly_in_VA]

21. And Sunday Night Football, don't forget that.

[wnylib]

22. Yes. And she got several awards for her music.

I am not a fan of hers. I am not a country music person at all. But, isn't she still current compared to someone like Billy Ray Cyrus?

[Think. Again.]

23. I only remember her name from years ago.

[Prairie Gates]

3. Some of the Liberty University Praise Choir and maybe one of the Village People

A real celebration of American music. Embarrassing.



Meanwhile, everybody under 25 just rocking out to the new Bad Bunny.

[Bluethroughu]

5. There is a smell of desperation in that list.

Plug accordingly.

[magicarpet]

27. Just so the Tangerine Menace can,....

.... say,...

See,.. see,.. the big time Hollywood stars and stage performer love DJT to bits just like they love Obama, H.Clinton, and K. Harris.

These big stars beg Team trDUMP to play a few songs at his events.

(As if.)

[Celerity]

6. all are shit

[kimbutgar]

7. None of these are A listers and some of them I have never heard of.

Sounds like the inauguration will be boring and I’m hoping for cold arctic snow storm to hit DC on the 19th and 20th!

[The Unmitigated Gall]

8. Achy-breaky dipshit. nt

[Bookreadingliberal53]

9. Jason Aldean was the performer when the Las Vegas shooting happened nt

[Think. Again.]

15. Oh, gee whiz, I hope the guests aren't gun nuts...

[33taw]

10. Well, consider them off my list. I put that into effect 40 years ago.

[wnylib]

20. I'm not a country music fan so some were never on my list.

The Liberty choir was certainly never on my list. Nothing related to Liberty U ever was.

I did used to enjoy dancing to YMCA, but that was long ago. MAGAs have ruined that song for me.

Lee Underwood - I did not like God Bless the USA from the beginning when it came out during the Bush years. It came across to me as supportive of Neocon policies. I am not against patriotic songs in general, but have always disliked that one.

[33taw]

24. Me too.

[Ocelot II]

11. It's hard to boycott a performer whose shows you'd never attend anyhow.

You'd have to pay me a lot to get me to any of the performers on that list that I've even heard of, and I can't imagine how awful a concert by the Liberty Praise Choir is likely to be - Christian pop is probably the ickiest of all musical genres. I looked up the ones I haven't heard of, and another thing stands out about this list: Everybody except for one or two of the reconstituted Village People is white. White as milk, white as the driven snow, white as Trump's ass. DEI is certainly not being observed in this lineup, so it was bound to suck.

[Ritabert]

12. Village People....xeriously??

Didn't they issue a cease and desist over Trump using "YMCA" and "Macho Man"?

[Ocelot II]

17. Only one original member of the Village People remains.

It's really just the Village Person now.

[Ritabert]

34. That explains it.

[Klarkashton]

19. I haven't looked but my guess is that it's maybe one

Of those original clowns using that name or maybe none of them. It doesn't matter anyway it was all stupid.

[wendyb-NC]

16. Hmmmmm,

Thank you, I'm bookmarking.

[LSparkle]

18. Ushering in America's new ... WHAT? Golden Age?

Golden Oldies Weekend is more like it. 🤪

[SledDriver]

25. Quite the lineup...

[LetMyPeopleVote]

26. Underwood is paying the price for her stupdity

[Dave Bowman]

29. "our nation's most iconic [musicians]"

This is hillarious!

[FSogol]

30. That would be really sad if it was true.

[tanyev]

31. Oh yeah, the Liberty University Praise Choir.

Iconic.

[struggle4progress]

32. If I could only learn to yodel

[jmowreader]

33. "Surprise musical guest set to appear at the Liberty Ball"

So I take it that's where they're going to slot Ted Nugent. The only surprise here is Village People, who Trump has been ripping off for years. Christopher Macchio is an opera singer who's been in Trump's sphere for quite a while, the Praise Choir comes from a heavily Trump-aligned university, and the rest of them seem to be country singers - all aligned with Trump.
