Saturday Night Live has announced the performers for its first three shows of the new year: Machine Gun Kelly, Phoebe Bridgers and Nathaniel Rateliff.

The first show of 2021, on January 30, will feature MGK with host John Krasinski.  The February 6 show will be hosted by Emmy-winning Schitt’s Creek star/producer Dan Levy with Bridgers as the musical guest, and Rateliff will take the stage February 13 during the show hosted by actress and One Night In Miami director Regina King.

Rateliff’s most recent album, And It’s Still Alright, came out in February of 2020; MGK’s Tickets to My Downfall came out in September; his new movie Downfalls High is on Facebook now.  Bridgers’ Punisher was one of 2020’s most acclaimed releases and has earned her three Grammy nominations.
