Despite the circumstances, the Super Bowl was not without it’s usual pomp and circumstance. Ahead of the National Anthem, a rendition of “America the Beautiful” has become customary at the Super Bowl.

Grammy nominated singer and songwriter H.E.R. performed “America the Beautiful” to kick the Super Bowl off. Donning a guitar, the 23-year old California native showcased her impressive vocals. Then came her guitar solo. Wow!

Thanks to the NFL for the footage!
