A familiar New England voice is set for pregame honors as Chargers and Patriots meet in the NFL Wild Card round.

Who is singing the national anthem for the Chargers vs Patriots NFL Wild Card game?

As the NFL Wild Card games take our focus, one pregame detail has already been settled for the Los Angeles Chargers vs New England Patriots showdown on January 11, 2026.
Zan Alexandra Berube set for Gillette Stadium
Singer Zan Alexandra Berube is expected to perform The Star-Spangled Banner before kickoff at Gillette Stadium, according to reports.
Berube has previously sung the national anthem at Patriots home games and public events in New England, making her a familiar presence for Foxborough crowds.
Who is Zan Alexandra Berube?
Zan is the kind of performer who seems to feel equally at home on a Broadway stage or in front of 60,000 football fans. A Massachusetts native with a serious theatrical background, she trained at the University of Michigan and went on to tour nationally in major productions, including Six: The Musical, where she played the scene-stealing Anne Boleyn, and Back to the Future: The Musical.
Offstage, Berube has built a reputation as a go-to anthem singer, delivering The Star-Spangled Banner at high-profile events for teams like the New England Patriots, Denver Broncos, and Boston Red Sox. Big vocals, big confidence, and zero stage fright.
Whether it’s a wild playoff crowd or a theater packed with luvvies, she appears to know how to own the moment.
