The Los Angeles Rams will face the Seattle Seahawks in the most crucial game in the NFL playoffs on Sunday after half a decade. Back in 2021, the Rams defeated the Seahawks in the Wild-card game. But the Seahawks are not the same anymore.
The playoffs are now at the most exciting stage when the two best teams in the NFC will go head-to-head on Sunday, Jan. 25, at 6:30 p.m. ET. And pre-game festivities include a national anthem performance by one of the best singers in the city and country.
Who Is Singing the National Anthem at the Rams vs Seahawks NFC Championship Game?
Singer Zach Top will perform the Star-Spangled Banner at the Seahawks vs Rams game on Sunday to kick off the game, per American Songwriter.
Top is a country and bluegrass singer-songwriter who is known for bringing a classic 1990s-inspired country sound back into the modern music scene. The star was born Zachary Dirk Top on September 26, 1997, in Sunnyside, Washington. Before he started his musical journey performing in a family bluegrass band, he eventually moved to Nashville to pursue music full-time.
Top first gained wider attention with his debut country radio single “Sounds Like the Radio” and the follow-up hit “I Never Lie,” both rooted in neotraditional country style, and they helped him build a growing fanbase.

His 2024 album, Cold Beer & Country Music, and his 2025 follow-up, ‘Ain’t in It for My Health,’ showcase his affinity for old-school honky-tonk and straight-ahead storytelling. His success includes winning the New Artist of the Year award at the 2025 Country Music Association Awards.
Today, Top is regarded as one of country music’s promising young voices, blending bluegrass roots and traditional influences in songs that resonate with both longtime country fans and new listeners.
