Second annual Heat Wave concert series to sizzle military bases across the globe

Beginning in late June, continuing through the July Fourth holiday, Armed Forces Entertainment (AFE) will once again bring the heat with 13 artists to more than 50,000 troops and their families at military installations across the globe. This year, Heat Wave returns with an epic line up including Billboard 200 rapper Kid Ink, “The Voice’s” Chris Kroeze and Angie Keilhauer, and Grammy-nominated Fastball.

It’s especially important during the Fourth of July that we show our support by putting on the best show we can,” said AFE Chief, Lt. Col.
