MEET THE CAST THAT’S STEALING THE SHOW
Joey Garland – The Man Behind the Music
At the center of it all is Joey Garland—the visionary behind the Outpost Opry Variety Show. Born into a rich musical legacy, Joey was mentored by his Hall of Fame grandfather, Bud Mote, who taught him early what it means to truly entertain.
In 2014, Joey launched Outpost Opry, which quickly expanded beyond Branson to theaters, casinos, festivals, and fairs across the country. He’s brought top names to the stage, including Michael Twitty, son of Conway Twitty, in a tribute that remains a fan favorite. Whether performing or producing, Joey brings energy, authenticity, and heart to every show.
As a board member of the National Songwriters Association International and a member of the Georgia Music Industry Association, Joey Garland brings both industry credibility and real showmanship to every performance—from his days in the All Pro Championship Wrestling ring as J.J. Boone to the music stage today.
Gale Jenkins – The Grand Lady with a Powerhouse Voice
They don’t call Gale Jenkins the Grand Lady of Branson for nothing. Born in Decatur, Georgia, her love for country music runs deep—but her sound blends country, pop, and Motown into a rich, soulful style that commands attention.
After performing across the Southeast, Gale signed with Southern Tracks in 1986 under legendary producer Bill Lowery, earning national radio play. Often compared to icons like Loretta Lynn and Tanya Tucker, she brings both strength and soul to the stage. Her latest recording project features top Nashville musicians, including Niki Nelson of Highway 101.
Multiple-time Female Vocalist of the Year and Best Song Stylist of the Year winner, Gale Jenkins has been turning heads—and stealing shows—since the 1980s.
Cassie Sears – The Star Who Came Full Circle
Cassie Sears’ journey is one of passion, resilience, and coming home to what you love. Performing since her teenage years, her career has taken her around the world—from international tours and cruise ships to theme parks and Cirque-style productions.
What began as a short stop in Branson turned into a life. Cassie built a family here and stepped away from the stage for nearly a decade to focus on motherhood and a career in the medical field. But the music never left her.
Now back on stage, Cassie is a familiar face in Branson and an award-winning performer known for heartfelt, powerful performances that connect deeply with audiences.
A multi-award-winning performer and fan favorite, Cassie Sears brings heart, power, and authenticity to every stage she steps on.
William H. Bass – The Wild Card You Never See Coming
And then there’s William H. Bass… the man, the myth, the mountain legend.
Hailing from Mayberry, North Carolina—and proudly claiming kinship to Ernest T. Bass—William delivers comedy that’s as unpredictable as it is unforgettable. Raised in Booger Hollow, Georgia, his life has included everything from moonshining to becoming a certified custodian.
His ongoing attempts to win over his beloved Millie with homemade love songs steal the spotlight every time. When William steps on stage, audiences lean in—because absolutely anything can happen.
WHY EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT IT
This isn’t just another Branson show—it’s the experience everyone can’t stop buzzing about. With family-friendly appeal, surprise guest appearances, and the perfect blend of heart, humor, and hometown charm, it’s the kind of night out that reminds you why live entertainment still matters.
