Sammy Hagar, The War and Treaty, Steve Stevens highlight Sunday’s gameday entertainment as Raiders honor military through Salute to Service

Grammy Award-winning artist Sammy Hagar, alongside special guest Michael Anthony, will take the mainstage at halftime. Hagar’s five-decade career has made him a rock icon, with 25 Platinum albums and over 50 million records sold. From his early days with Montrose to his acclaimed solo career and fronting bands like Van Halen, Chickenfoot and The Circle, Hagar has written some of rock’s most enduring anthems, including “I Can’t Drive 55” and “Right Now.” Along the way, he’s earned a GRAMMY Award and inductions into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, solidifying his legendary status in music. This spring, Hagar will bring his top-grossing “The Best of All Worlds Tour” to a nine-show residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM Las Vegas, reuniting the rock powerhouse band that includes fellow Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Michael Anthony, 15-time Grammy nominee guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani and iconic drummer Kenny Aronoff.

Husband-and-wife duo The War and Treaty, one of the most electrifying new acts in American music, will perform the National Anthem. This year, Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter earned their first ever Grammy nominations for Best New Artist and Best American Roots Song for “Blank Page.” They have also earned nominations for Academy of Country Music Vocal Duo, for People’s Choice Country Awards Group/Duo of the Year, two Americana Music Association Duo/Group of the Year awards. Prior to their musical career, Michael was a member of the U.S. Army stationed in Iraq with quite a unique story. During his deployment, he was encamped in one of Saddam Hussein’s private palaces where he taught himself to play music on one of Hussein’s pianos.

This All-Star ensemble is an exciting, innovative and dynamic 19-piece orchestra led by David Perrico’s powerful trumpet and stunning vocalists, featuring an all-female acoustic string section.
