Village People and Carrie Underwood have been confirmed as performers at Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20.

Village People, the disco group best known for their hits “Macho Man” and “Y.M.C.A.,” have confirmed they will be performing at the nation’s capital on January 20 as part of Donald Trump’s inauguration festivities. The group’s songs have been played at Trump’s rallies, and the president-elect dancing to “Y.M.C.A.” became a meme online last year.

“Village People have accepted an invitation from President Elect Trump’s campaign to participate in inaugural activities,” the group wrote on Facebook. “Our song Y.M.C.A. is a global anthem that hopefully helps bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign, where our preferred candidate lost. Therefore, we believe it’s now time to bring the country together with music.”

The disco group will perform at Trump’s “victory rally” on Sunday at Capitol One Arena. They will also play the Liberty Inaugural Ball, one of three major events being held on January 20 as part of Trump’s inauguration.

In addition to the Village People’s performance, country star Carrie Underwood will perform “America the Beautiful” as part of the inauguration ceremony. She will be accompanied by the Armed Forces Chorus and the United States Naval Academy Glee Club.

“I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event,” said Underwood. “I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.”

Classical crossover singer Christopher Macchio is also scheduled to perform an as yet unspecified “musical selection” before JD Vance is sworn in as vice president.

The inauguration festivities will take place in Washington, D.C., on January 20, which coincides with the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday.
