Who Is Singing The National Anthem At Super Bowl LVI?

This performer(s) for the National Anthem at Super Bowl 56 will be announced at some point during mid-January of 2022.

Last year there were two singers of the Star-Spangled Banner at Super Bowl 56. Country recording artist Eric Church will sing the song as a duet with R&B singer Jazmine Sullivan. H.E.R. has also been tapped to perform “America the Beautiful” before the SB begins.

The National Anthem prop bets below were produced by online Super Bowl sportsbooks for SB 55 and are posted here as an example until LVI’s props are unveiled.

Super Bowl National Anthem Betting Controversies

During Super Bowl 45, Christina Aguilera flubbed the fourth line, singing, “What so proudly we watched at the twilight’s last gleaming,” instead of “O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.” This event was likely what prompted the origination of prop betting lines that ask if the performers will flub a lyric, as they now appear at legal Super Bowl betting sites each February.

Super Bowl 53’s rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner stirred debate when Gladys Knight added several mentions of the word “brave” at the end of the song. Sportsbooks decided the song was officially over after the first mention of the word, setting the precedent for the official conclusion of the Anthem when it comes to Super Bowl prop betting.

Garth Brooks refused to come out to sing the Star-Spangled Banner prior to Super Bowl 28, but later agreed to perform. Since that time, all performers have been required to pre-tape their rendition of the National Anthem to offset the risk of any incidents prior to the game.

Many performers have opted to use their pre-recorded tracks and lip sync the National Anthem instead of singing it live on Super Bowl Sunday. Whitney Houston’s performance in Super Bowl 25, widely considered to be the greatest ever performed, was actually lip-synced.
