and

The Texas Legacy Band

“A Legacy of Music From The Heart of Texas” ..Touring in 2008

Leading The Texas Legacy Band, Jerry and his team perform country songs which include cover selections from George Strait, Alan Jackson, Dierks Bentley, Gary Allan, Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, Willie Nelson, Brooks & Dunn, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Ray Price, Keith Whitley, Tracy Byrd, Jim Reeves and other greats. In addition, they perform tunes from the 50's & 60's, and classic southern rock songs with inspirations coming from Skynyrd, Bob Seger, ZZ Top and more, along with originals of their own and selections of songwriters Roy Harris, Jeff Knight and John Selleck.

The one and only Mr. Tom Perryman, morning DJ at KKUS 104.1, "The Ranch" in Tyler, Texas who booked Elvis in Hawkins, Texas and partnered in business with Jim Reeves, along with DJ Bob Mauldin, interviewed Jerry Coke stating, "Jerry Coke is what real country music is all about." Mr. Sam Jones, President of the Chamber of Commerce in Llano,Texas wrote a letter of thanks to Jerry commenting, "The music you have provided, at more events than I can count, has always been upbeat and well-mixed....Jerry, you are a valued member of our community and a talented artist." After hearing Jerry perform at a restaurant in Lindale, Texas, residents George and Faye Whitehead with Dawn and Goldie Hall started a fan club for Jerry Coke in 2002 which continues to this day. This fan club has continued to grow and has added a west Texas chapter.


Among places where Jerry Coke has performed are restaurants, opry's, clubs, festivals, ranches, gospel concerts, churches, rodeos, music halls, fairs, festivals, trades days, weddings, community centers, and senior citizen facilities. Jerry Coke and The Texas Legacy Band are venturing out to areas where their music has not yet been heard at venues and events of every size and shape. Jerry states, "...A good band is a team effort, and although I may be in front, they are my team, and together we are a good energized band." Mr. Coke tells his booking agent, "...anytime there is an opportunity to make a stop at a senior citizen facility, children's hospital, or anything else of that nature, count me in..." There is no place and no distance Jerry Coke and The Texas Legacy Band won't go.
