| Mr. T.G. Sheppard got his start as an opener for some of the biggest acts in America, including The Animals, Jan & Dean and The Beach Boys. Today T.G. Sheppard is one of the most popular live performers in country music. With a show chock full of chart-topping hits like Last Cheater's Waltz, I Loved 'Em Every One, and Do You Wanna Go To Heaven, it's only natural that T.G. has developed a reputation as a solid performer who delivers exactly what audiences want. When he released Devil In The Bottle, his first number one hit, T.G. formed a close personal and professional relationship with Elvis Presley. | |||
| The legendary performer appreciated T.G.'s unique style and personality. As a token of their friendship, Elvis gave T.G. his first tour bus. During his first year on the road T.G. scored numerous hits including Trying To Beat The Morning Home, and When Can We Do This Again. He scored 10 consecutive number one songs, including such classics as Only One You, Party Time, and War Is Hell (On The Homefront). His duet with Karen Brooks, Faking Love, scored yet another number one, and Make My Day, a duet with Clint Eastwood featured in the feature film "Sudden Impact" crossed over onto the pop charts. In 1985, T.G. signed with Columbia Records, where he again found himself at the top of the charts with songs like Fooled Around And Fell In Love, Strong Heart, and One For The Money. | |||
| T.G. was one of the original investors in the highly popular chain of country nightclubs, Guitars & Cadillacs. The clubs serve as showcase venues for many emerging country singers. T.G. also served as the national spokesperson for the Folgers' NASCAR racing team for eight years. In 1995, he took a two-year hiatus from the road to perform exclusively for eight months a year at T.G. Sheppard's Theater In The Smokies, a state-of-the-art theater in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. | |||
