Country singer and rock music aficionado Carrie Underwood has accepted David Draiman’s open invitation to sing on stage with Disturbed – however, it won’t be at the band’s upcoming Nashville show.

Earlier this week, David Draiman took to social media to invite Carrie Underwood to sing Ann Wilson’s parts on ‘Don’t Tell Me’ at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Saturday 17th February 2024.

Draiman wrote: ‘Who’d like to see @carrieunderwood perform #DontTellMe with @Disturbed in #Nashville 🤘🏻??!! I know I sure as hell would! What do you say? Carrie? Shall we rock? #CarrieUnderwood #Disturbed #DontTellMe.’

Last night, Carrie Underwood responded to Draiman’s plea, and wrote: “Ahhhhh!!! Why am I not in town when you guys are playing here?”

Confirming that she’s up for a Disturbed collaboration, she added: “Our time will come…”

The emotionally charged ‘Don’t Tell Me’ featuring Heart’s Ann Wilson first appeared on Disturbed’s 2022 album ‘Divisive’, and it marked the first time a guest featured on a studio record by the Chicago band.

A keen rock music fan, Carrie Underwood supported Guns N’ Roses on three dates of their North American tour in August 2023, and she duly injected rock anthems into her setlist.

Alongside rockier versions of her own repertoire, Underwood belted out Motörhead’s seminal song ‘Ace of Spades’, Heart’s ‘Alone’, The Rolling Stones’ ‘Wild Horses’ and Joan Jett’s ‘Bad Reputation.’

Earlier in the summer, she also covered Ozzy Osbourne’s ‘Mama, I’m Coming Home’, which features lyrics penned by Motörhead’s Lemmy, during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show.

Carrie Underwood is good friends with Axl Rose, and she was joined on stage by the Guns N’ Roses rocker at Stagecoach Country Music Festival in April 2022 for renditions of ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’ and ‘Paradise City.’

Underwood also united with Guns N’ Roses at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to duet on ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’, and in March 2023 Rose joined Underwood on stage again at the Los Angeles Crypto.com Arena for ‘Welcome to the Jungle.’
