Larry Turner as George Strait
When the father of the man you’re paying tribute to, tells you that you resemble his son, you know you must be doing something right. This occurrence is exactly what happened with our very own Larry Turner, who performs as George Strait for Legends. With many people referring to George Strait as the “King” of country music, we’re proud to have a singer who so closely resembles him. Interestingly, Larry Turner received this compliment from Strait’s father before deciding to become a professional tribute artist.
Turner grew up playing music, and started playing professionally in 1976, receiving nine years of vocal training along the way. Rather than focusing on country, he developed his talent as a gospel singer. As part of a gospel quartet, performing as a soloist and lead singer, Turner’s group played for eleven years in the Precious Moments Chapel in Carthage, Missouri. It was in this capacity that Larry met and performed for George Strait’s father. Shortly thereafter, Larry and his wife came to see Legends in Concert, and that’s when Turner realized he could have a career wowing fans as a George Strait tribute artist.
Challenging himself to transition into a country music role, Larry has since developed an incredibly impressive act as George Strait. He now regularly pleases the audience with his renditions of George’s songs, like “All My Exes Live in Texas” and “Amarillo By Morning”. Throughout his career, Larry has proved his musical worth time and time again. His talent earned him the privilege to perform for the President of the United States, the KC Royals, the NY Yankees and the Texas Rangers. He sang at the gospel version of the Grammy’s, the Gospel Music Dove Awards, and now he sings for the audience at Legends. Whether you are familiar with George Strait’s music or not, when you see a performance from Larry Turner, you’re bound to be impressed.
Leo Days as Michael Jackson
Leo Days was born in Honolulu, Hawaii and raised in Flint, Michigan. In 1983, an impressionable 2-year-old was awestruck by a sequin-embellished, moonwalking Michael Jackson on the television special, “Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever.” Leo first learned to moonwalk as a child, and remained a fan of the King of Pop throughout the years. Days began performing at the age of 15 as Elvis Presley, and always wanted to perform as Michael Jackson, but apprehensions about being able to pull off “the look” kept him from pursuing that dream.
Leo began working for the show, “Legends in Concert,” and met a Michael Jackson tribute artist who took Leo under his wing and mentored him into his new role. Leo took that knowledge and practiced for years, finally hitting the stage as MJ for the first time at a nightclub in Phoenix, Arizona. From there, he was invited to perform as Michael Jackson at the Michigan Elvis Festival in 2019, and in 2020, he made his debut as the King of Pop on the “Legends in Concert” stage. Leo wishes to bring the energy and magic that Michael brought to the stage, and he is grateful to be able to share the legacy of Michael Jackson with audiences everywhere.
