Watch: Jon Batiste Performs the US National Anthem at the Super Bowl 2025

Jon Batiste joined an esteemed list of names to kick off the Super Bowl 2025 with the US National Anthem.

Taking center stage at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, the revered GRAMMY winner took vocal flight with a unique interpretation of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner.’

Batiste’s offering functions as a homecoming of sorts, given that he was born and raised in Louisiana.

The star’s showing precedes the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show, which is being headlined by Kendrick Lamar.

Watch Batiste in action after the jump….
