Lee Greenwood sang his iconic God Bless the USA between periods of the NHLs 2015 Winter Classic outdoor game in Washington, DC on New Years Day, but the real treat came off-stage in a concourse at Nationals Park. Fortunately, it was recorded on a smart phone, so you can enjoy it this Independence Day.
Gabrielle Dube, an intern for the event, posted it with this description: After Lee Greenwoods performance during the intermission, he met with the Military Choir to take pictures and it sparked an impromptu a cappella version of God Bless the USA. Amazing!

awesome .... thanx
That is just beautiful. It almost lifts my spirits which are in a deep funk over recent SCOTUS shenninigans.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for posting this, it’s great.
BUMP! and bookmark
You’re welcome.
I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Many years ago, my band opened for Lee. Good guy!
The look on Mr. Greenwood’s face when speaking to the Chorus leader, just prior to beginning the song, is priceless.
It was a very good rendition of the song. I think of Ronaldus Maximus every time I hear the song. It gave me goose bumps.
