Scotty McCreery will perform with the National Symphony Orchestra as part of the National Memorial Day Concert airing live on PBS on Sunday, May 28, at 7 p.m. CT.

The concert, which will be filmed from the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, DC, will also be live-streamed on PBS’ Facebook Live.

The event will be co-hosted by actors Laurence Fishburne and Joe Mantegna and features additional performances by Vanessa Williams, Renee Fleming, Ronan Tynan, Auli’i Cravalho and Russell Watson.

Scotty recently released his new single, “Five More Minutes,” a deeply personal tune that he co-wrote with Frank Rogers and Monty Criswell two weeks after the death of his grandfather in 2015.
