Nashville, TN (May 20, 2015) – Platinum-selling country star and Streamsound recording artist Kristian Bush
is teaming up with Armed Forces Entertainment, MWR, and Stars for
Stripes for a special two-week long military tour of U.S. military bases
in Japan. Bush will kick off the tour by headlining a special Memorial
Day Concert on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Oahu, Hawaii, on May
25. 

“I
am excited and honored to spend time with and perform for our fine men
and women of the Armed Forces, and completely humbled to be playing
Pearl Harbor on Memorial Day,” says Bush. “My father was an officer in
the Army and my grandfather served in World War II, and I am so proud of
their service. I’ll always do whatever I can to support our troops.”

During
his performance at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Bush will also
participate in a Grand Ole Opry “Circle Throwdown,” honoring both the
Opry’s 90th Anniversary and “Salute the Troops” month in their year-long
“Cause for Applause” celebration. He will then travel to Japan to
perform seven shows for the troops stationed in that country.
