Before the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks take the field tonight to decide who becomes world champions, multiple artists will take the mic to perform ahead of the big game. Singer Charlie Puth and renowned Deaf music artist Fred Beam will perform the national anthem before Super Bowl LX.
The game is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 p.m. ET at Levi’s Stadium — home of the San Francisco 49ers — in Santa Clara, California. Pregame musical performances will take place shortly before kickoff, so fans can tune in on NBC to catch it all.
Puth is a multi-award-winning and multi-platinum singer, songwriter and producer. Some of his biggest hits include “We Don’t Talk Anymore,” “See You Again,” “Attention,” “Nothing But Trouble” and “Marvin Gaye.”
The 34-year-old New Jersey native comes by his musical talents naturally, as his mother was a music teacher. His roots are in classical music and jazz, and he began learning piano at 4 years old. By sixth grade, he had recorded, produced and sold a Christmas album on his own, showing entrepreneurial spirit from a young age.
His musical career began on YouTube, where he created videos and wrote jingles for other creators on the platform. Puth later signed with APG/Atlantic Records and released his debut single, “Marvin Gaye,” featuring Meghan Trainor in 2015. The song peaked at No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
Puth has worked with numerous artists as both a writer and musician. His collaborators include Ozzy Osbourne, Justin Bieber and Pitbull.
He announced that his fourth studio album, Whatever’s Clever!, will be released in March 2026 and has released two songs from the project so far.
