Dan Deacon performed the national anthem ahead of the Baltimore Orioles’ game against the New York Mets on Thursday, July 10. The Baltimore artist’s unique electronic rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” proved to be motivational for his hometown team, as the Orioles defeated the Mets 7-3. Head to Instagram to watch the performance, and see photos of it below.
Deacon has not released a traditional studio album since 2020’s Mystic Familiar. He’s mostly stayed busy scoring films and television programs and releasing soundtrack albums. His most recent soundtrack album, for Venom: The Last Dance, arrived in October.
Back in 2023, fellow Baltimoreans Turnstile threw out the first pitch at an Orioles game. Revisit that moment here.
