Mike McCready is coming back to CenturyLink Field.

The Seattle Sounders announced Thursday that the longtime Pearl Jam guitarist and Seattle native will perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the first leg of the Western Conference Championship at CenturyLink Field on Tuesday, Nov. 22 (7 p.m. PT; FS1/KIRO 97.3 FM/EL Rey 1360AM).

McCready has performed the national anthem before Sounders games twice in the past – before the second leg of the 2014 Western Conference Semifinals against FC Dallas and again before the regular season finale against Real Salt Lake last season.

A graduate of Seattle’s Roosevelt High School, McCready was one of the founding members of Pearl Jam when the band first came together in Seattle in 1990. In the 25 years since the release of their seminal 1991 debut Ten, the band has established itself as one of the iconic rock bands of the past three decades, releasing 10 studio albums and topping Billboard charts in the United States and across the globe.

McCready is also currently on tour with Temple of the Dog, the star-studded rock group featuring members of both Pearl Jam and fellow Seattle icons Soundgarden founded in 1990. The group, which saw its one and only studio album reach No. 5 on the U.S. charts in 1991, announced an eight-city U.S. tour earlier this summer that will conclude with sold-out shows at the Paramount Theater in Seattle on Sunday and Monday.

McCready's performance on Tuesday will help raise awareness of Treehouse for Kids, a Seattle-based organization that provides academic and other essential support for more than 7,000 youth in foster care across Washington State each year.
