Jessie to Sing National Anthem at Rose Cup Races

I’m not sure how this happened (okay, I am, but I’m still in a bit of disbelief). Apparently I’m going to be singing the national anthem at a car race next month.

I know, right?

So, Portland folks, if you’ll be at the Rose Festival’s Rose Cup Races on Sunday, June 15th, keep an eye (ear?) out for me right before the “start your engines” bit. I’m simultaneously thrilled and terrified. I’m also secretly hoping this will be the natural first step toward one day singing the anthem before a Timbers game, because HELLO.
