Soundgarden, Luke Bryan will play Seahawks’ NFL season opener in Seattle

Key Points:

• The Seattle Seahawks will kick off their title-defending season with a Super Bowl rematch against the New England Patriots on September 9 at Lumen Field, featuring a special halftime show by Seattle rock band Soundgarden.
• Soundgarden will be joined by singer Taylor Momsen of The Pretty Reckless and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, who will also perform the National Anthem during the NFL season opener.
• Despite the national NBC broadcast of the game, much of the halftime performance is expected to be excluded from the televised coverage, according to the band's representatives.
• In addition to the halftime show, country star Luke Bryan will perform a pregame kickoff concert at Lumen Field, with tickets available to game attendees and season ticket holders receiving early access.
• Bryan, who postponed two Washington concerts due to wildfires, will also return to the area for a makeup show on October 10 at White River Amphitheatre.
