(hennemusic) Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready performed the National Anthem before kickoff at the Seattle Sounders MLS playoff game on Monday and pro-shot video of the performance has gone online.

McCready was on hand to deliver a Jimi Hendrix-like electric version of the anthem at CenturyLink Field prior to the Sounders' Western Conference Semifinal match against FC Dallas.

"Was honored to play the Star Spangled Banner at last night's Seattle Sounders FC playoff match on the eve of today's Veteran's Day Holiday," posted McCready on Tuesday. "I was there on behalf of Treehouse For Kids."

The organization provides Seattle's youth in foster care with the academic and essential support they equally deserve to help them graduate high school with a plan for their future.
