Glen Campbell spent 5 decades entertaining audiences all over the world. He was an American Treasure whose songs and dazzling showmanship shot him to superstardom in the 1960's

During his 50 years in the music business, Campbell released more than 70 albums. He sold 45 million records worldwide and accumulated 12 gold albums, four platinum albums, and one double-platinum album. He placed a total of 80 different songs on either the Billboard Country Chart, Billboard Hot 100, or Adult Contemporary Chart, of which 29 made the top 10 and of which nine reached number one on at least one of those charts.
After Glen's death in August of 2017 fellow musician and entertainer in his own right, Carl Acuff Jr. along with a notable group of musicians decided to put together a tribute show to this entertainment legend featuring his wonderful catalog of music. With Glen's original arrangements and charts provided to the group by Mr. TJ Kuenster they are as close as you can come to the real deal. Therefore, The Wichita Lineman show was born. After searching around on how to approach this project Carl hand picked musicians, including some Glen Campbell alumni from the Branson, and Las Vegas years to bring this show to life with full instrumentation, great vocals and musical ability. Each wonderful entertainers in their own right, beginning in 2018 they started bringing to life Glen Campbell's music once again for all the world to enjoy the way it was meant to be performed.
