Rascal Flatts Sing “Bless The Broken Road” At Trump’s Inaugural Ball

Rascal Flatts Reunite For First Performance In Years
After being on hiatus for years, Rascal Flatts reunited to sing at one of the inaugural balls honoring President Donald Trump.
In January 2020, Rascal Flatts announced their plans to embark on a Farewell Tour later that year. Unfortunately, the tour was canceled before it even started due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Member Jay DeMarcus said in one interview it felt like their chance to say “goodbye” to their fans was “stripped away” from them.
Rascal Flatts didn’t want to end things that way. After their multi-year hiatus, the group announced they’re reuniting for a new tour in 2025.
But before their Life Is A Highway Tour kicks off on February 13, Rascal Flatts reunited for a special performance at one of Donald Trump’s inaugural balls.
Rascal Flatts’ Gary LeVox, Jay De Marcus, and Joe Don Rooney were three of many country artists who performed at Trump’s inauguration festivities. Singers such as Billy Ray Cyrus, Kid Rock, Lee Greenwood, Jason Aldean, and Parker McCollum performed at various events and balls connected to his inauguration.
Carrie Underwood drew the most attention for her performance of “America the Beautiful” during Trump’s swearing-in ceremony. When technical issues kept the recorded musical track from working, Underwood opted to sing a cappella, and encouraged the whole crowd to sing along.
