() Three-time Grammy-winning artist Nelly will perform at the Liberty Ball on Inauguration Day.

It follows the swearing-in of President-elect Donald Trump on Monday, Jan 20. The news was announced via a press release Saturday by the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee.

Nelly won’t be the only music star present in Washington D.C. on Inauguration Day.

Country music phenomenon Carrie Underwood will sing “America the Beautiful” at the swearing-in ceremony.

Underwood faced some backlash for taking the opportunity to sign at Trump’s inauguration, however, longtime Trump critic Whoopi Goldberg came to her defense this week.

Nelly, 49, whose birth name is Cornell Haynes II is a St. Louis native with hits such as “Hot in Herre” and “Just A Dream.” The 49-year-old has had four No. 1 hits and won nine Billboard Music Awards.

He escaped drug charges in November following an arrest at a Missouri casino in August.

Other performers on Inauguration Day include Kid Rock, Jason Aldean, Billy Ray Cyrus, The Village People and Rascal Flatts.
