Pleasant Hope native JC Fisher and his friends John Hagen and Marcus Collins didn’t win the million-dollar prize on “America’s Got Talent” last fall.
But even a fourth-place finish is opening doors for the trio, known as the Texas Tenors.
The three men perform a unique country-pop-opera blend that is attracting fans of all ages and genres.
In December, their debut CD reached the No. 1 spot on CD Baby.com in three genres: Country Pop, Classical Opera and Ambient Sound Voice.
And their tour schedule is filling up, with appearances from Las Vegas to the United Kingdom. From May 9 to 12 (8pm), they will play at the Starlite Theatre in Branson.
It’s career adrenaline for the three, who separately have honed their crafts for years before joining together and gaining national attention from the talent show.
“We are grateful every day,” said Hagen. “We really do think about it every day, how fortunate we are.”
How the trio formed:
JC Fisher graduated at the top of his class at Pleasant Hope High School in 1992. Before finishing a degree at Wichita State, Fisher studied at Southwest Missouri State for three years.
Show Dates:
Shows are at 8 p.m. May 9 to May 12 and at various times Sept. 28 to Oct. 23 at the Starlite Theatre, 3115 W. Missouri 76 in Branson.
