LeGarde Twins 48 Year Old Dream Comes True

The LeGarde Twins from Habana Queensland, the youngest of nine children raised in a two room shack dirt floor a wood stove two kerosine lights, no running water, no phones, no electricity but a dream in their hearts. They left school at 13 years old to work the sugar cane farm left home at fifteen to work on the Rocky Ponds cattle station up near Homehill for two years where they learned how to become real Stockman riding, roping, mustering, dipping cattle, droving through the heat and dust and living on bully beef and damper like you see in the Man From Snowy River. They were Buckjump Riders on the Rodeo circuit for two years then travelled with Wild West Shows, Circuses all over Australia. They learned to play the guitar singing country songs knife throwing, sharp shooting whip cracking and holding on to that dream. They went to Hollywood for five years returned to Australia in 1963 to fulfill their dream of having their own TV Show and that?s when they were signed by ATN7 to star in a TV series called "Country Style" filmed at Artransa Studios in Sydney.

After filming 14 Episodes they were signed to star in another TV show called Studio A which made headline news as the "TV SHOCK OF THE YEAR" and "Country Style” was put on hold and it was never shown until now. 48 years later "Country Style" will have its World Television Premiere on January 2, 2011 on the Country Music Channel Network (CMC) in Australia. When the Twins were told that their "Country Style Show" was finally going to be seen, they let out a COO-EE CALL that would have echoed through the Snowy Mountains and made the comment, (how beautiful it is to be alive and never cease to dream). The Twins are still performing and are at present living in Nashville Tennessee and planning a tour in Australia.
