Larry Turner, a singer who has performed professionally since 1976, started his career in
gospel music as a soloist and also as lead singer for "The Lads" quartet. In the early
1990's Precious Moments contacted him to start and produce a music show for the
Precious Moments Chapel in Carthage, MO. He served in that capacity for 11 years.
During that time he had the privilege to meet George Strait's father and was told that he
had a strong resemblance to his son. After leaving Precious Moments, Larry moved to
Branson, Missouri, performing at the Presley's Country Jubilee.
Having grown up in southwest Missouri, music was the last thing on his mind. Larry's goal
in life was to play professional baseball. When asked what changed his mind about
baseball, he says "I wasn't any good". His talent was discovered during his junior year in
high school and he has been singing ever since. His travels have taken him all over the
world and throughout the United States.
Larry feels that it is truly an honor to impersonate such a legend as George Strait. George
has been performing for twenty-five years and holds the record of 53 number one country
singles. He was recently inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame and his latest CD "It
Just Comes Natural” won Album of the Year at the 2007 CMA awards. Some of his
classics are, “All My Exes Live In Texas", "Amarillo By Morning", "The Chair"...and he shows
no signs of slowing down.
