Elliott Yamin Takes to Stage to Entertain Troops in Guam and Japan on Second USO Tour
ARLINGTON, Va., September 30, 2009 – “American Idol” finalist and R&B sensation Elliott Yamin will venture to Guam and Japan on his second USO/Armed Forces Entertainment tour, October 7 -17. The soulful vocalist will visit military bases, perform four free concerts for troops and their families as well as sign autographs.
Originally from Richmond, Va., Yamin traveled to Germany, Belgium and the UK on his first USO tour in February 2008, visiting and entertaining more than 2,000 troops serving in the region. Best known as one of the top three finalists on the 2006 season of Fox’s “American Idol,” Yamin is a huge supporter of the U.S. military.
“I write a lot of the songs I perform, but finding the words to describe my gratitude to our men and women in uniform seems impossible,” said Yamin. “Working with the USO is the best way for me to let troops know how much I appreciate their service.”
