Fayette County Opry to Celebrate 21st Anniversary Show

Derek Spence will headline this month’s 21st Anniversary of the Fayette County Country Music Opry with a tribute to George Strait on Monday, Feb. 21 at the KC Hall in La Grange. Doors open 5:30 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m.

Derek Spence is an original Texan, (born in Nacogdoches) earned a degree in Performing Arts Production from South Plains College. He has performed everywhere from Fiesta Texas to the Grand Ole Opry.

During his time spent at the Grand Ole Opry, he shared the stage with folks like Shania Twain, Diamond Rio, Kenny Rogers, Trisha Yearwood, Mark Chesnutt and Restless Heart.

While in Nashville, two major record labels turned him down because they said “You look too much like George Strait.” The look and vocal talent have helped Derek become the top “George Strait Tribute Show” in America.
