I couldn’t verify a specific performer for the WABI-TV5 5 a.m. news opener from the available information, but WABI has recently promoted its “Star- Spangled Sing-Off” and related anthem content on its platforms.

What I found

  • A WABI-TV5 post from June 2026 promotes the “Star-Spangled Sing-Off” and a separate voting post for entries.
  • The search results did not surface a clear, confirmed name tied to the 5 a.m. news national anthem segment itself.

Closest match

  • Similar TV stations have used local singers or young performers for early-morning anthem segments, but that does not confirm WABI’s current performer.

Best read

  • Based on what’s available, the most accurate answer is: I can’t confirm who performs it from the public results I found.
