Performers in the 2024 Super Bowl include Post Malone, Reba McEntire, Usher, and more

Enjoy the performances of all the performers during Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, from the pre-game festivities to the halftime show.

The next Super Bowl LVIII is approaching quicker than a lineman staggering away after a fumble recovery is caught by a cornerback. It’s the end of a season that saw the reigning champs falter, Lamar Jackson argue for a second MVP, too many teams lose quarterbacks to injury, and an abundance of Taylor Swift coverage from the NFL.

But there’s more to the Super Bowl than just the game itself. In addition to the football game, fans watch for the advertisements and a number of well-known musical acts; this year’s entertainers provide several reasons to watch. The first-ever Super Bowl to be held in Las Vegas, in 2024, will include performances by Usher, Reba McEntire, and other celebrities.

This is a list of all the artists that will play at the 2024 Super Bowl on Sunday, February 11.

Usher

The R&B icon Usher will be the main attraction at the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show. The singer of “My Boo” will make his halftime show debut as the main act, but this won’t be the first time he takes the stage during the Big Game. He had previously made an appearance as a guest at the Super Bowl XLV Black Eyed Peas performance.

The singer concluded his two-year Las Vegas residency late last year, and he told EW that he saw this performance as the pinnacle of his career.

There aren’t many information available before the concert, as is typical with halftime performances. Usher did admit to EW, nevertheless, that his performance will last longer than previous Super Bowl halftime concerts. The typical halftime act lasts 13 minutes, but Usher’s group managed to get him 15 minutes. But he hasn’t said which songs he’ll play or who, if anyone, could make an appearance as a special guest.

A-list musical guests often make an appearance during halftime show performances, but that’s not always the case. Rihanna did not invite any special guests to perform at the halftime performance last year, and the Weeknd did not do so the year before either.

Reba McEntire

Reba McEntire, a recent The Voice coach and member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, will also be hosting at the 2024 Super Bowl. McEntire has been selected to perform the national anthem, taking over from Chris Stapleton, who did so in 2023.

Given how much “The Star-Spangled Banner” has influenced McEntire’s career, the part is appropriate for her. At the Oklahoma City National Finals Rodeo in 1974, McEntire performed the national anthem. Red Steagall, a country singer who was in the crowd, saw her performance and helped finance her first recording, which eventually led to her first record deal. For the following ten years, she kept singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the National Finals Rodeo. Recently, she paid homage to her heritage by performing the national anthem during the 2017 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, which was held in Las Vegas alongside Super Bowl LVIII.

Post Malone

During the pre-game festivities, McEntire will be joined by Post Malone. As part of a three-song sequence that has opened the game since 2021, he will sing “America the Beautiful.”

The vocalist of “Circles” is emulating Babyface, who performed “America the Beautiful” during the Super Bowl in 2023. Since 2009, the song has been a staple of the Super Bowl pregame ritual.

Andra Day

Singing “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” which is sometimes referred to as the Black National Anthem, is Andra Day. Since Alicia Keys sang the song at the 2021 Super Bowl, it has been a staple of the pre-game broadcast.

Day is the fourth artist to perform the song at the most viewed television event in the United States. Day revealed plans to release her third album this month. In 2022, Mary Mary sung it, and Sheryl Lee Ralph of Abbott Elementary did so the previous year.

Kaskade

Following Tiësto’s withdrawal, the NFL said that DJ Kaskade, a producer, would take over as the in-game DJ for the Super Bowl. As Tiësto was slated to do, Kaskade will take over, providing music for the teams to warm up before the game and performing during “featured breaks.” He will be the first-ever DJ to play during the Super Bowl proper.

Following the announcement, Kaskade posted on social media, “As a child who grew up in Chicago watching the NFL Super Bowl every year with my family, this chance to really be part of it is truly mind blowing.” “I have spent the last ten years making Las Vegas my second home as an architect designing a destination that features House and Dance Music residencies.”

“I’m beyond delighted to represent my community,” he said, adding, “and to be able to be the first Electronic Musician to be part of the whole game experience of the Super Bowl staged in Las Vegas is like returning home.”

Daniel Durant

The national anthem will be performed in American Sign Language (ASL) by Daniel Durant, who appeared in the Oscar-winning film CODA, while Reba McEntire sings. Along with competing on Dancing With the Stars season 31, Durant has also had appearances on Switched at Birth, You, Chicago Med, and Florida Man. During one particularly moving performance, he danced to silence to represent his experience as a deaf artist. Durant proposed to Britt Stewart, his DWTS partner, in December.

Shaheem Sanchez

During the pre-game festivities, actor and choreographer Shaheem Sanchez will sign “Lift Every Voice and Sing” while Andra Day performs. Additionally, he will perform Usher’s Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show in ASL. Sanchez had an appearance in Riz Ahmed’s 2019 Sound of Metal. Additionally, he worked with Snoop Dogg and Ciara and made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Anjel Piñero

Dancer, model, and actress During the pre-game show, Anjel Piñero will sign “America the Beautiful” as Post Malone performs. Piñero, a contestant in the Miss New York USA pageants for 2023 and 2024, has made appearances in ASL commercials for Nickelodeon’s Spongebob Squarepants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Kenan and Kel, in addition to Law and Order SVU.
