I am only 22 years old, but I remember going through my dads old records as a child. My father introduced me to a lot of great music, but he and I have a special place in our hearts for Larry.

I remember seeing Larry in concert in Greenwood IN. He talked about his beat-up guitar. Everyone I know loved him and his music style. We'll miss him but we know he is in a great place now. God Bless You all.

I was blessed to grow up in a Christian home and my parents were faithful in taking me to church. But what pushed me to give my life to Christ, to receive Jesus as my Savior and Lord, was the song: I Wish We'd All Been Ready After listening to that song, I DID NOT want to be left behind. At age 7, I asked Jesus t...

All of the members of the band Leeland seemed like just kids. The singer/song writer is just 19. After his first great song, he proclaimed that God w...
