Larry G. Jones
Larry has earned the highest of accolades from the press and the public for his award winning show “The Man of 1002 Voices.” He has performed over 1,400 shows as a Las Vegas Headliner and countless more as an Emcee, Corporate Entertainer,  and live vocalist. He’s also performed at major theme parks and State Fairs, and been an emcee for major events. He has put together a show that is not only clean but very funny and entertaining, as well as truly vocally amazing. Are you ready to have some fun?
Larry G. Jones’ voice has been heard around the world, on radio, TV, and by well over 250,000 people at his show in Las Vegas! Larry Jones’ ability to be a chameleon with his voice and his love of performing on the stage led him Las Vegas after 14 years as a studio and live vocalist.
His incredible singing voice would be enough to keep an audience captive, but at over 4 dozen Singer and Celebrity Voices from the last 50 years in every show, it’s no wonder his show has ended with standing ovations for corporate clients like Hewlett Packard, Taco Bell, and Best Buy.
 it all started back in 1986 when Larry’s natural talent had him working as a professional vocalist just one month after he first picked up a microphone. After honing his craft on stages and in studios across the country, and many years of vocal training, Larry found a niche in the recording industry in Los Angeles as a celebrity impressionist for radio comedy morning shows. Two weeks after his first professional recording session, Larry’s voice was being heard on over 900 radio stations. Soon he was also writing comedy bits for radio shows across the nation. He began expanding his repertoire of voices, and has continued working as a comedian and vocal impressionist ever since.
 Larry’s next big move in the recording industry was recording Sound-alike voices for blockbuster movie soundtrack knockoffs that were (and are) distributed nationally and internationally in American, Canadian, and European Markets. Two years later, Larry has recorded over 40 songs for at least 14 different movie soundtracks.
After word spread and his recordings of Sound-alike abilities began to flourish Larry more found work as an impressionist for the world’s largest manufacturers and distributors of Aerobic dance mix music for health clubs like Bally’s Gym. Fit-mix and Dyna-mix corporations have always been pleased with his vocal Soundalikes which range from dance mixes of Jerry Lee Lewis to the operatic tones of Bocelli and Pavarotti. Next time you’re in a department store, squeeze one of the dancing/singing animated stuffed animals or characters, you may just hear Larry’s voice there too! He has recorded dozens of songs for animated gifts!
Las Vegas Press Reviews
 “His mannerisms and vocalizations are dead-on, it is his comical parodies that set him apart. Unlike most impressionists Jones can readily switch his voice from men to women and back again.”
— Las Vegas Senior Press
“Heir to the Danny Gans throne. He was buzzing through impressions so full of one-liners and comedic lyrics that you barely stopped laughing at the last one before he hit you with another zinger.”
— AccessVegas.com
“His talents are a strong rival to every other impressionist in Las Vegas. Jones has a masterful ability to manipulate his body, his face, and his voice. His routine gives us a fast paced and delightful romp through musical history, and we relive the times by hearing our favorite artists. He has the ability to do both male and female voices, and his rendition or Cher is a highlight in the evening!”

“It’s the delivery and comedic lyrics of the songs that make this show a winner. I’ve gotta tell ya, this guy can sing. Larry combines his great voice with a personality that marks this show’s appeal. He could make it just as well as a singer who does impressions rather than an impressionist who sings.”
— LasVegas.com
“Jones not only delivers terrific impressions, his comedic talent is well-timed and physically impressive. He’s got the sound, facial expressions, the moves - and the talent - to easily fill a larger room. His parody of Johnny Cash’s Ring of Fire is hilarious; likewise Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson. His duet between Nat King Cole and daughter Natalie Cole is awesome. He’s a rare late afternoon delight. A must see!.”
— eVegas.net
“He’s very good singer/impressionist with a flair for comedy. I was impressed with his on-stage charisma and talent. He puts on a great show. Go see it.”
— Las Vegas Review Journal
