Country music star Chris Stapleton performed the National Anthem at Super Bowl LVII. His performance so powerful, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was moved to tears during his performance.

Stapleton has been a performer for years, and he's no stranger to performing on big stages. Additionally, his resume boasts multiple Grammy Awards and 10 Academy of Country Music Awards.

The Anthem

On the eve of Super Bowl LVII, country singer Chris Stapleton performed the National Anthem before both Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs kicked off. Accompanied by his Fender Telecaster, Chris brought his unique take on country music to this timeless classic, adding a layer of soulfulness.

Fans on Twitter were in awe of Stapleton's performance, with one viewer writing that it "might just have been my favorite Super Bowl version of the National Anthem (Whitney Houston aside!)!" Another person wrote that it was truly "one in a million."

Stapleton was joined onstage by Academy Award-winning deaf actor Troy Kotsur from 2021's CODA to perform the song in American Sign Language. Their duet created an emotionally charged and moving moment.

Stapleton not only sang the national anthem, but he also played guitar during his performance. As he finished each verse with applause and chants from the crowd, Stapleton truly captured their hearts.

At the conclusion of the anthem, fireworks were lit throughout the stadium. Stapleton concluded his performance by playing the final notes of the anthem alongside first-ever all-female Navy aviators flying over the stadium.

Once the song had ended, a crowd of spectators began to cry. Some were even caught on camera by Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni and starting center Jason Kelce - making them look even more emotional.

The National Anthem is a must-hear at every football game, but it takes on special meaning during the Super Bowl. It serves as an opportunity for all Americans to recognize their national heritage and unite in unity.

At this year's Super Bowl, Stapleton joined a host of other artists to sing the National Anthem before the game kicked off. Other performers have included Demi Lovato, Eric Church, Gladys Knight, Pink and Lady Gaga.

Stapleton's anthem was an intensely moving performance that left many in tears - including those at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. He brought along his family as well, including daughters Ada and Waylon who donned special Super Bowl LVII outfits to show their dad some support.

Stapleton's performance served as a great illustration of how artists have interpreted the anthem over time. He did an outstanding job delivering the song with energy and precision, with his accompanying American Sign Language interpretation providing for an impactful moment.

The Audience

The audience is a term used to refer to any group of individuals watching something, such as a performance or show. It can refer to either an identifiable type of audience like a class or demographic group, or it could refer to the general public in general.

On Sunday, country singer Chris Stapleton was joined by his family as he sang the National Anthem during Super Bowl LVII. At 44 years old, Chris was joined by his wife Morgane and their two oldest children Ada and Waylon.

Stapleton is a proud family man, counting his five children as his biggest supporters. He and Morgane also have twins Macon and Samuel (ages 4), as well as an unnamed 3-year-old who will join their parents soon.

Stapleton's music can be compared to other major country stars like George Strait and Vince Gill. Additionally, he exudes an impressive stage presence that allows him to captivate a large audience.

He possesses the vocal range to deliver his best work when it comes to love songs and relationships, but he can also craft more intimate tunes that are personal. This was particularly evident in his rendition of the National Anthem, where he sang it with a soulful, classic blues feel.

On Sunday, the country star who has been nominated for multiple awards including Best Male Vocalist of the Year at the 2022 CMA Awards sang his heart out with guitar accompaniment. He delivered a beautiful performance that featured plenty of soulful vocal runs and pitch-perfect high notes.

Stapleton's performance of "My Country" was more subdued than some of his fellow country artists, yet still heartfelt and inspiring. Her vocals were an integral part of the show, setting the mood for what would follow throughout the evening.

Social media was witness to a truly heartfelt moment as singer-songwriter Taylor Swift sang the National Anthem. Fans wept as she belted out the iconic tune.

Stapleton's performance was stunning, but another moment that truly stole the show was when Troy Kotsur -- Oscar-winning actor from 2021's CODA -- performed the national anthem in American sign language on behalf of the National Association of the Deaf. This marked the first time an ASL interpreter had performed such a moment during an NFL game and it was truly special to witness.

The Performance

The performance of the National Anthem at Super Bowl is one of the biggest musical moments, offering artists a chance to express their patriotic spirit. This year, eight-time GRAMMY winner Chris Stapleton received this prestigious honor before America's largest sporting event on Sunday (Feb. 12).

Stapleton's gruff country voice and restrained guitar performance were ideal for the anthem, creating an emotionally charged rendition that panned from Stapleton to military personnel and caused tears to well up from football players and coaches on the sidelines.

Before the game, Stapleton joined a series of performances before kickoff that included Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds singing "America the Beautiful," and Sheryl Lee Ralph performing "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Babyface sang the anthem in American Sign Language while Sheryl Lee Ralph translated it into English.

For the third year in a row, a country artist has performed the national anthem at the Super Bowl. Mickey Guyton did so last year and Eric Church joined R&B singer Jazmine Sullivan to reprise this tradition in 2021.

This iconic anthem has been performed by a variety of artists throughout history, from pop stars like Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey to country greats George Strait and Carrie Underwood - and it remains widely considered one of the greatest in musical history.

At Super Bowl LVII, Stapleton's rendition of the national anthem was truly remarkable. Sporting his signature rumbly voice and dark sunglasses, Stapleton sang a heartfelt version that moved everyone in attendance.

Stapleton is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter who first moved to the city in 1996 to attend Vanderbilt University but soon after dropped out. While selling cars and driving an ice truck for a living, he also wrote songs and played in bars.

Stapleton began writing songs during his stay in Nashville, inspired by two songwriters who encouraged him to pursue a career in music. Since then, he has composed hits for artists such as George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Luke Bryan and Darius Rucker.

The Finale

No moment before a sporting event is more significant than when the National Anthem commences. Performers have an immense responsibility to get it right, and that holds especially true for the Super Bowl.

Chris Stapleton, country music star, made history on Friday when he sang the National Anthem with his country style and soulful appeal. It was truly a moment to remember.

Stapleton, an eight-time Grammy winner in the country genre, made a lasting impression with his rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner."

He began the performance by soloing on his Fender Tele guitar, adding his trademark grit to the song. Wearing dark sunglasses, he gave fans an unforgettable performance filled with light blues and deep patriotism.

After the performance, all-woman Navy aviators made history with a rare flyover above the stadium to commemorate 50 years of women in aviation. During their performance, they sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" in American Sign Language before setting off fireworks across the sky.

Before the game, Stapleton was joined by actor Troy Kotsur who performed the national anthem in American Sign Language to pay tribute to America's deaf and hard of hearing citizens. Throughout their performance, tears streamed down Eagles coach Nick Sirianni and lineman Jason Kelce's faces as they tried to contain the tears of joy from their eyes.

Though the performance was powerful, it didn't overshadow other songs being sung. R&B singer Babyface and Emmy-winning actress Sheryl Lee Ralph both sang the anthem as well.

They sang the anthem with the same passion and assurance they displayed when playing their own songs, marking a new tradition of artists singing the national anthem before games. Notable recent performers include Eric Church, Luke Bryan and Carrie Underwood who all contributed to make this performance truly special.

Before Stapleton sang the anthem, Ralph stood on a platform and chanted "Lift Every Voice and Sing" in an inspiring and theatrical manner. She donned a red train on her platform along with long red gloves to complete her ensemble. Her performance was highly impressive, culminating in an energetic finale that included all of the choir members.
