Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile and Coco Jones to bring star power to Super Bowl LX

The Super Bowl just got a major dose of star power. Yesterday, the NFL revealed its Super Bowl LX pregame entertainment lineup — and it reads like a Grammy-night highlight reel. When football’s biggest Sunday kicks off at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on February 8, 2026 (airing live on NBC, Telemundo and Peacock), fans will be welcomed by chart-topping hitmaker Charlie Puth, powerhouse icon Brandi Carlile, and R&B’s unstoppable rising star Coco Jones.

“Super Bowl Sunday is the world’s biggest entertainment stage,” said Jon Barker, the NFL’s senior vice president of global event production, adding that this year’s artists “embody the very best of music and culture.” Translation: expect a show worth tuning in early for.

Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez echoed the hype, calling Puth, Carlile, and Jones “generational talents,” and promising a performance moment that represents “the very best of culture, live performance, and our country” — all before the coin toss.

Charlie Puth Takes on the National Anthem: The man behind some of the most addictive pop hooks of the last decade — from “Attention” to “We Don’t Talk Anymore,” and the global phenomenon “See You Again” — will open the night with the National Anthem. Puth, who has racked up more than 35 billion streams and a wall of platinum hits, is also gearing up to release his new album Whatever’s Clever! on March 6, 2026. Consider Super Bowl night the ultimate preview.

Brandi Carlile TO Deliver “America the Beautiful”: Few artists carry the kind of musical gravitas Brandi Carlile brings to a stage. The 11-time Grammy winner, Oscar nominee, Emmy winner, bestselling author, and outspoken activist will perform “America the Beautiful.” Her newest album, Returning To Myself, has already been hailed as one of the year’s best, following her acclaimed Elton John collaboration Who Believes in Angels?

Coco Jones to Perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing”: R&B phenom and Bel-Air star Coco Jones continues her ascent with a major Super Bowl spotlight. The Grammy-winning vocalist — who already holds eight Grammy nominations, including for her debut album Why Not More? — will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” After the smash success of her platinum hit “ICU,” Jones is quickly becoming one of the defining voices of her generation.

A History-Making Moment for ASL Performers: This year’s pregame festivities will also shine a spotlight on powerful American Sign Language performances. Deaf music artist Fred Beam will sign the National Anthem and “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” while Julian Ortiz will take on “America the Beautiful.”
And in a historic first, the Apple Music Halftime Show will feature a multilingual signing program, including Puerto Rican Sign Language, led by Deaf Puerto Rican performer Celimar Rivera Cosme.

All ASL performances are produced in collaboration with LOVE SIGN’s Alexis Kashar and Howard Rosenblum of Deaf Equality.
