The NFL has officially selected Charlie Puth to perform the national anthem at Super Bowl LX.
According to Parade, the game will take place on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, with Puth opening the pregame ceremony with a rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
Puth’s path to the Super Bowl reflects a career built on musical precision and formal training. A New Jersey native, Puth studied jazz piano as a child before attending Berklee College of Music, where he developed the technical foundation that has come to define his work.
He first gained national attention with Nine Track Mind in 2016, which included the global hit “One Call Away” and the Grammy-nominated “See You Again” with Wiz Khalifa. Since then, Puth has positioned himself as both a pop vocalist and a behind-the-scenes architect of modern radio music.
His follow-up projects, including Voicenotes and Charlie, emphasized melody-driven arrangements and vocal clarity, earning him four Grammy nominations across his career.
Known for his ability to blend pop sensibilities with music-theory-driven compositions, Puth has also written and produced for artists such as Selena Gomez, Maren Morris, and Liam Payne. His upcoming album, Whatever’s Clever!, is scheduled for release in March 2026 and arrives ahead of his Super Bowl appearance.
Joining Puth in the Super Bowl LX pregame lineup are Brandi Carlile and Coco Jones. Carlile, who will sing “America the Beautiful,” is an 11-time Grammy Award winner whose work bridges folk, rock, and Americana. Her career spans more than two decades, highlighted by acclaimed albums like By the Way, I Forgive You, and In These Silent Days.
In addition to her solo success, Carlile is known for high-profile collaborations with artists such as Elton John and The Highwomen.
Jones will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” The Grammy-winning singer and actor has built a dual career in music and television, earning widespread recognition for her breakout R&B single “ICU,” which earned her her first Grammy. Jones also stars in Peacock’s Bel-Air.
The Super Bowl LX pregame show will air across NBC, Telemundo, and Peacock, with American Sign Language performances featured throughout the broadcast.
