4TROOPS are United States combat veterans - three young men and one woman who served on the front lines in Iraq and Afghanistan. They sing well-known positive pop and country songs that inspire all who listen. While overseas, music played a crucial and very personal role in all of their lives, singing 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. 4TROOPS 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 with their patriot songs.
4TROOPS released their debut self-titled CD during Armed Forces Week (May 8-May 15) with a portion of the proceeds from the sales to benefit veteran-related organizations. The group, made up of Former Cpt. Meredith Melcher, Former Sgt. Daniel Jens, Staff Sgt. (Ret.) Ron Henry and Former Sgt. David Clemo, recently taped their concert special from the U.S.S. Intrepid in New York City. "4TROOPS: Live From The Intrepid," will air on participating PBS stations this summer. They have also performed on the CBS Early Show, Fox & Friends, and Good Morning America.
