4TROOPS
Four powerful American voices come together to support the American veteran and honor their sacrifices through song
4TROOPS are United States combat veterans - three young men and one woman who served on the front lines in Iraq and Afghanistan. While overseas, music played a crucial and very personal role in all of their lives. They would sing at everything from large military events to more intimate settings, where they would jam in their bunk after a long day in the field and try to recall a slice of home. They also used their voices at somber occasions like memorial services, where they would sing to remember those that had been lost.
4TROOPS now come together for a singular purpose: to sing on behalf of all troops, to honor their sacrifices and to create awareness for their needs.
Their self-titled debut album "4TROOPS" will be released on May 25th. The CD includes a collection of patriotic and uplifting songs designed to entertain and spread their positive message to all serving troops, veterans and American citizens who are inspired by them everyday.
A portion of the proceeds from the sales of 4TROOPS products will be donated to one or more veteran-related charities, including the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA). IAVA is the first and largest non-partisan, non-profit for veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and has more than 180,000 veteran members and civilian supporters nationwide.
In February 2010, 4TROOPS taped a concert special at a U.S. Military base for intended airing in the summer on participating PBS stations. In March 2010, 4TROOPS embarked on an U.S. Military base tour, which was followed by a National tour.
