Lee Greenwood to Perform at Donald Trump's Inauguration Amid Frosty Weather

The country music star reflects on his decades-long career, patriotic anthem, and friendship with Trump as he prepares for the swearing-in ceremony and new tour.

Lee Greenwood, known for his patriotic anthem 'God Bless the USA,' will perform at Donald Trump's inauguration, with the ceremony moved indoors due to cold weather.
Greenwood has performed for multiple U.S. presidents, including Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and Trump, and views these events as an honor and celebration of American pageantry.
He is set to kick off his 'American Spirit Tour' following the inauguration and recently released a 'God Bless the USA Bible,' which includes U.S. founding documents and has sparked some controversy due to being printed in China.
Greenwood credits his wife, Kim, a former Miss Tennessee and pageant executive, for her influence on his career and personal life, and the couple shares a long-standing connection to Trump through her pageant work.
Reflecting on his legacy, Greenwood emphasized the importance of preserving American art and culture, including Indigenous contributions, and expressed pride in the enduring relevance of his music.
