Exciting Performances at The White House Fourth of July Celebration

Light up the sparklers and fire up the grill ! Tyler Childers and Angelica Hale will be the performers at the White House 's Fourth of July celebration . The event , in honor of Independence Day , will be held on the South Lawn . In addition to performances by the country singer and America 's Got Talent season 12 runner - up , the event hosted by President Joe Biden and Dr. Jill Biden will have active - duty military service members and their families in attendance for a barbecue , as well as viewing fireworks along the National Mall.

Childers , the country artist , made headlines in September 2020 when he surprise released his Grammy - nominated album Long Violent History , which peaked at No . 45 on the Billboard 200 . Along with the set came a video of the musician , who is currently on the road for his Mule Pull 24 Tour , sharing a powerful message about racial inequality for those who did n't understand or support the Black Lives Matter movement . Hale 's set on Thursday will be the 16 - year - old 's second time performing for the Biden Administration . The Filipino - American artist , who was only 10 when she competed on AGT , sang the national anthem at the White House in May for an event in celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.

 We've all witnessed violent acts of police brutality happen around the nation that have gone unaddressed . In response , we 've seen protests turn to riots , and riots culminate into acts of violence and destruction of property . From the outsider 's perspective , it 's hard to see where all this visceral anger is coming from , the Kentucky native said in part in the video , which also referenced Breonna Taylor , who was shot and killed by police while she was in bed . What I believe to be one of the biggest obstacles in pinpointing the cause of this is our inability to empathize with another individual or group 's plight.

The celebration will also include musical offerings from White Ford Broncos , D.C. 's all-90s cover band ; DJ Mel ; and the United States Marine Band . This lineup promises to provide a diverse range of entertainment for the attendees at the Fourth of July concert at the White House . With a mix of country music , powerful vocal performances , and energetic bands , the event is sure to captivate the audience and add to the festive atmosphere of the Independence Day celebrations.
