The show starts at 4 p.m. today (Sunday, October 19). It’s presented by Masskus Productions.

The Volunteers are the musical ambassadors of the U.S. Army in Washington, D.C., a press release said.

“Since 1981, The Volunteers has been bringing the Army story to life through rock, pop, country, and patriotic music,” the release said. “Whether rocking out major arenas around the country, thrilling crowds at community events, or entertaining veterans in more intimate shows, these soldier-musicians proudly represent their fellow soldiers for hundreds of thousands of Americans each year.”

The release said the Volunteers have appeared in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, Kuwait, and Iraq, with recent performances at Summerfest, Country USA, and the AAA 400 at Dover International Speedway.

“The members of The Volunteers also take great pride in their annual support of the U.S. Army All-American Marching Band, where they teach and mentor the next generation of musicians,” the release said.
