The lineup for Turning Point USA's "All-American Halftime Show" is finally here.
The show, put on by the conservative organization to compete with Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime performance, will feature performances by Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert and Lee Brice. Gabby Barrett, 2021 winner of new female artist of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards, will also perform.
Kid Rock is a close ally of President Donald Trump, becoming more outspoken in his conservative beliefs in recent years. Both Gilbert and Brice are mid-level stars in the country music space; Gilbert is known for hits like "Dirt Road Anthem" and "Bottoms Up" while Brice is known for tracks like "One of Them Girls" and "Rumor." Barrett is the only female performer so far announced, breaking through with her hit single "I Hope."
"We're approaching this show like David and Goliath. Competing with the pro football machine and a global pop superstar is almost impossible … or is it?" Kid Rock said in a release announcing the lineup.
Kid Rock continued, taking jabs at Bad Bunny: "He's said he's having a dance party, wearing a dress, and singing in Spanish? Cool. We plan to play great songs for folks who love America."
