SIX![]() At the Mickey Gilley Theatre, 3455 W Highway 76. New show location in 2012! The SIX Show...is six real brothers doing a show – now in their 6th season in Branson in 2012! They actually come from a family of ten brothers, no sisters, and are the six oldest in the family. They're also known as the Knudsen Brothers, Barry, Kevin, Lynn, Jak, Owen & Curtis. On their website, you can sign up for their Knusletter, which is now called the SIX Flash. When the Six Real Brothers were still very young, their father noticed they could make up songs and also make up harmonies without instruction. Being musically gifted himself, he decided to sit them down at an old piano (the only instrument they could afford) and teach them gospel hymns. They picked the hymns up quickly and were soon singing them in 4-5 part harmony. After their first performance, singing gospel in church, they began learning other types of music and performing at various rotary clubs, talent contests, community concerts and fairs. After 3 years of hard work, they made their national television debut on the Donnie and Marie Show in May of 1978. During their teenage years they experimented with everything from Barbershop to Disco to Punk Rock. In 1995 the brothers were blessed to turn their music career into a full-time gig once and for all. They have shared the stage with Trisha Yearwood, Diana Ross, the Beach Boys, Olivia Newton John, Rod Stewart, the Doobie Brothers and many others. Their award-winning act has been featured on Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines since 1998 and their ratings by its passengers are unrivaled. They have also performed for numerous corporations such as American Express, Pizza Hut, the Million Dollar Roundtable, Northeastern Financial, Pitney Bowes and Ryder Trucks, just to name a few.
