“Larry’s Country Diner” has captured the hearts of consumers across

ages 50+ [Nielsen]. Fervent fans and the shows’ growing popularity have led to a multiple-year waiting list to be a part of the studio audience.

There are few artists in the Country Music format any more beloved than Jean Shepard.
The Oklahoma native hit the charts before she turned twenty-one with
1953’s “A Dear John Letter,” a duet with Ferlin Husky, the man who would
also be her legal guardian for a brief period during the song’s chart
climb. She added such hits to her resume as “Second Fiddle To An Old
Guitar” and “Slippin’ Away.” She will mark sixty years as a member of
the Grand Ole Opry next year, and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2011. The singer released her autobiography, Down Through The Years, earlier this year.

For four decades, Gene Watson has kept audiences
entertained with his traditional style of Country Music. He broke onto
the radio airwaves in 1975 with “Love In The Hot Afternoon.” Other hits
would include “Paper Rosie,” “Farewell Party,” and “Don’t Waste It On
The Blues.” Watson is a frequent performer on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry, and has just released his newest project, My Heroes Have Always Been Country, a collection of his favorite songs that has become his highest-charting album in a quarter-century.

Sabinal, Texas native Johnny Rodriguez was the first
major Latin American star in Country Music. Breaking upon the scene in
1973, thanks to Tom T. Hall, the singer hit with his first single, “Pass
Me By,” which quickly became a top ten hit. The singer remained a chart
favorite throughout the 1980s, placing six singles atop the Billboard charts, including “That’s The Way Love Goes” and “Love Put A Song In My Heart.”

Jamie O’Neal began her musical career in a band with
her parents while growing up in Australia. The soulful stylist came to
the attention of Mercury Nashville in 2000, and she would top the charts
with her first two singles – the haunting “There Is No Arizona” and the
energetic “When I Think About Angels.” Her most recent album, 2014’s Eternal, features her take on songs made famous by artists such as Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers, Patsy Cline, and Connie Smith.

Tim Menzies has enjoyed one of the most well-rounded
careers in Country Music. The Virginia native first achieved success as
a member of the 1980s Warner Brothers group Bandana, and enjoyed
success with solo singles such as “This Ol’ Heart” and ‘That’s Good.” He
also penned some of the biggest hits of the 1980s and 1990s, including
“Mama Knows” (Shenandoah) and “She Dreams” (Mark Chesnutt). He has just
released his first project in a dozen years, the Gospel-flavored His Way Of Loving Me.
