Diamond Rowe brings “Enter Sandman” to the Atlanta Falcons
Tetrarch guitarist Diamond Rowe played Enter Sandman at the Atlanta Falcons’ October 11 game. Her own account explains the Metallica connection.
Diamond Rowe brought Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” to Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the Atlanta Falcons’ October 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Tetrarch guitarist’s performance became a personal milestone as well as an unusual setting for a metal guitar showcase, with Guitar World reporting the appearance on October 14.
Why she chose Metallica
In her October 12 Instagram post, Rowe explained that the Falcons had asked her to suggest recognizable songs that would energize the stadium. Metallica was her immediate choice: she credited the band with inspiring her to start playing guitar.
“We brought heavy music to NFL Sunday Night Football,” she wrote. Rowe also thanked Josh of Tetrarch for handling the wah behind the goalpost. It is a small, practical detail from the performance, and one she chose to acknowledge alongside the larger occasion.
The signature-guitar connection
Guitar World identifies the instrument used as Rowe’s Jackson Pro Series Signature DR12MG EVTN6.
The official Jackson product page describes a single-cut Monarkh-based guitar with a 25.5-inch scale, EverTune bridge, active EMG 81/85 pickups and a Dark Rose finish. Those are the model’s published specifications, rather than an independently checked inventory of every component on her stadium instrument.
The performance footage is linked in Rowe’s original post. Her account centers the occasion on taking the music that first drew her to guitar into a stadium setting, with Metallica providing the song.
