Pigeon Forge, TN – From the stage to the front of the house, talent abounds in the Fee Hedrick Family Entertainment Group!
Brent Long can be found selling Discount Show Tickets in the Comedy Barn Theater lobby when he isn’t pursuing his passion: singing country music.
The 23 year-old Pigeon Forge resident received the Horizon Award as Male Vocalist of the Year from the Tennessee Country Music Association. Long’s performances of “The Grand Tour” by George Jones, and “You Were Always on My Mind” by Willie Nelson captivated talent scouts during the competition held in Pigeon Forge last month.
Long says his most significant musical influences are “the Georges,” meaning George Straight and George Jones. He admires the young talent of Brad Paisley and Blake Shelton. His sweet smile radiates a love for music and his family. The youngest of three boys, and the only singer in his family, Brent has his sights set on a Nashville recording deal. The TCMA believes he is well on his way to achieving that goal.
Comedy Barn Theater and Discount Show Tickets are part of the Fee Hedrick Family Entertainment Group. The Black Bear Jamboree Dinner and Show, The Blackwood Breakfast Variety Show, and Happy Days Diner are also part of the Fee Hedrick Family. In March of 2006, The Miracle Theater will open it’s doors featuring The Miracle, a original, epic musical production, centered on the life of Christ, and Triumphant Quartet will entertain Gospel fans weekday mornings as the newest additions to the successful East Tennessee entertainment company.
