Records trio Gloriana will perform on NBC’s “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno” on Thanksgiving Eve, Wednesday, November 23rd at 11:35pm EST (check local listings). As a means of expressing thanks to the U.S. armed forces, “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” will once again host a special show for U.S. military personnel with the audience made up of representatives from each of the five branches of the U.S. Armed Services and Gloriana is set to perform “Soldier Song,” inspired by the band’s trip overseas to perform for the troops stationed in the Middle East and Europe last November. Gloriana, whose new single “(Kissed You) Good Night” is currently climbing the country charts, recently put the finishing touches on their second album set for release early next year.

    “Soldier Song” was written by band members Tom and Mike Gossin and multi Grammy Award winning producer Matt Serletic.

    Gloriana released their debut self-titled album in 2009 and quickly became the best-selling debut country act, winning the 2009 fan voted American Music Award for Breakthrough Artist. The album, Gloriana, spawned the Gold-certified hit single “Wild At Heart” and led to two years on the road as Taylor Swift’s opening act on her Fearless Tour where they performed in front of millions worldwide. Since then they have continued to open for some of country music’s biggest names including Jason Aldean, Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, and the Zac Brown Band. In 2010, Gloriana won the Academy of Country Music’s Award for Top New Vocal Group, celebrated their first headlining tour across the country, and traveled overseas to entertain U.S. troops on bases in the Middle East and Europe.

I was also at the concert at Jefferson Community College and started volunteering at 8:00am that morning. The Band shows up 2 hours late and their sound guy walks in and pulls attitude on the staff when everyone was their to assist and most were soldiers from Fort Drum. I think the sound guys name is rick and he was degrading to the military volunteers. It was very unfortunate since everyone was their to help and make their show enjoyable for all but Gloriana and their staff did not do that! I agree with below based on my experience that These guys are using the U.S. Military members for publicity and promotional advancement! I hope Jay Leno pulls them from the show!

I'm a soldier from the 91st Military Police Battalion from fort drum, New york. This band performed a show at Jefferson Community College last night and myself, along with several other soldiers from our unit helped to set up and tear down for the performance. After the show was over and we were taking down the venue, I noticed the set list on the ground and it said that they were giving public thanks to the local radio station, Fort drum soldiers and the JCC student activity group. Mike Gossin, read the list off and skipped over the soldiers who were the primary reason that this event was able to take place due to set up and tear down. Not only did they fail to mention the soldiers in thanks, they did not perform the "soldiers song" and when questioned, the manager stated " I don't have a comment for that". I am not trying to sound like I'm complaining or bitter, but if it wasnt for the soldiers the venue would not have even been possible. These guys are using the U.S. Military members for publicity and promotional advancement. Anonymously yours, U.S Army Soldier
