Here it is! Our performance of the Canadian National Anthem for the Atlanta United vs Montreal game at Mercedes Benz Stadium on May 2nd 2026 :-) 🇨🇦⚽️🇺🇸 Thank you for having us! We had the best time 🥰
I got a phone call from Ruby Velle in March asking if I wanted to come sing the Canadian National Anthem with her at Mercedes Benz for the Atlanta United vs. Montreal game. Ruby and I both share rich childhood memories of living in Canada and have a tender spot in our hearts for Canada, so, I said YES, OF COURSE. My dad was born and raised in Montreal, so I called him to see if he’d fly down from Canada for this one. He did. He stood there on the stage with us along with my momma, my sister, and my future wife and future in-laws as we sung the beautiful song of Canada to a stadium full of people 🥹 We all met up in the stands with Ruby’s wonderful family. Thanks to Ruby’s gracious heart, I got to bring my family and friends together for a very special occasion, and I am forever grateful! I’m still in awe of the power of song and the way it brings people together. More photos and video to come! :-)
