Ready to experience a Branson WOW? Clay Cooper's Country Express brings it home to you with high-energy performances for the entire family. Authentic country? Yes. More than country? And how! Clay and his group of 24 entertainers deliver nonstop talent with singing, dancing, a live band and comedy. No matter your taste in music, you'll find something to enjoy, including traditional country, new country, gospel, patriotic and rock n roll. This year's Branson show continues to mix it up with an incredible male trio called Third Power with sound reminiscent of Boston and Cyndi Lauper. Ten dancers and singers electrify the stage with hits from Bruno Mars, Queen, the Bee Gees and other favorites. Clay's impersonations of David Allen Coe, Johnny Paycheck, Waylon Jennings, and Hank Williams Jr. will make you believe those country giants have come back on stage just for their Branson fans. Get ready to belly laugh when Matt Gumm, voted Branson's Comedian of the Year, dishes out comic routines and antics, including some unexpected abilities on uncommon musical instruments. And Clay's wife, Tina, and their sons, Colton and Caden Cooper add even more dazzle to the show with their extraordinary talents. After every show, Clay hangs out to meet and greet new fans and old. Creating "something for everyone" is why Clay Cooper's Country Express is one the most spectacular, family-friendly shows in Branson. In the words of Sarah C. of Revere, Missouri, "It's the perfect show for the family. Action packed, funny, traditional and modern all rolled up in one!"
