Carrie Underwood made an unexpected appearance with Guns N’ Roses during the band’s concert at Truist Park in Atlanta on September 19. During the show, the country star joined Axl Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan, and the rest of the group onstage for Sweet Child O’ Mine and Paradise City.
The surprise performance continued a musical connection that has developed over several years. Underwood previously opened for Guns N’ Roses in 2023 and also shared the stage with Rose at Stagecoach in 2022, showing a side of her musical taste that reaches well beyond country.
Rock has become a more visible part of Underwood’s live performances in recent years. She has incorporated songs associated with artists including Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach and Collective Soul into her sets.
Her latest appearance in Atlanta added another chapter to that crossover. For fans in attendance, the collaboration brought together two different corners of popular music in a live moment that was not announced in advance.
