Montgomery Gentry performing for Auburn game; Marlana VanHoose doing National Anthem

The Kentucky Wildcats will once again be holding a pregame concert, this one coming before they host the Auburn Tigers next Thursday in primetime.

The school announced Tuesday that Montgomery Gentry will headline UK’s fifth pregame concert. The duo, which features Kentucky natives Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry, will take the stage next to the Glenn Infiniti of Lexington Green Lot adjacent to Gate 1 of The New Commonwealth Stadium at 4 p.m.

The school also announced that Marlana VanHoose will sing the national anthem. VanHoose is a 19-year-old Kentucky native who suffers from cerebral palsy, but has an incredible voice that has carried her from singing at UK women’s basketball games to performing at the MLB Home Run Derby and the NBA Finals.
