Watch Carrie Underwood's Rock-Influenced 'SNF' In Electrifying Sneak Peek

Carrie Underwood takes the stage in front of a cheering audience in her 14th consecutive Sunday Night Football opening anthem.

The eight-time Grammy winner and SNF on NBC shared a sneak peek on Instagram on Thursday night (August 6). Sparks fly behind Underwood as she performs the iconic song for the crowd packing an intimate venue in the clip. The country star poses for photos backstage, and emerges before the fans wearing a black outfit and knee-high boots, paired with shimmering accessories.

Underwood, 43, said in a statement earlier this week that the newest Sunday Night Football installment fuels “my ongoing rock star fever dream,” in the highly-anticipated new opening theme song. The eight-time Grammy-winning country star said in a press release on Tuesday (August 4), “I love this new version of the track and, once again, [Sunday Night Football Creative Director Tripp Dixon] and the incredible team behind the camera brought it to life in a whole new way that captures the spirit of this iconic song and the heart of rock ‘n’ roll. It’s one of my most favorite opens yet!”

Underwood has previously taken the stage (and/or released collaborations) with Axl Rose of Guns N’ Roses, Joan Jett, Mötley Crüe, Billy Idol, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach.

Dixon added in a statement of his own that this year, “we’ve drawn inspiration from Carrie’s deep, well-documented love of rock music – a perfect fit since our Sunday Night Football anthem was born from pure rock ‘n’ roll: Joan Jett and the Blackhearts’ ‘I Hate Myself for Loving You.’ We’ve worked to match these two rock frequencies of past and present as they come together in Carrie’s high-energy performance. The greatest players and teams in the NFL will take it from there.”

The new Sunday Night Football opening will make its debut on September 13. Watch the sneak peek here:
