Larry Pierce was a comedic-country music singer who specialized in songs with raunchy lyrics. He was known in the business as "The Master of Dirty Country Music," and had quietly been building a following of dedicated fans since 1993. Born Larry G. Pierce on July 18, 1950, he lived most of his life in the small Central Indiana town of Middletown and had been married to his wife Sandy since June 17, 1982, and had three children. Pierce worked in an auto parts factory for over 30 years until being forced into retirement due to plant closure. Larry died on November 19, 2018 in his garage which was known for hosting concerts and get-togethers Larry wrote his first dirty song "Love Letters" as kind of a joke, playing guitar and entertaining friends on the weekend. Then in 1993, someone submitted some of his songs to Laughing Hyena Entertainment, a label that specializes in truck stop comedy and distributes almost exclusively at truck stops across the country. Ten years and thirteen albums later, he was approached by an independent film company from New York City (Milkhouse Productions) to do a full length documentary on his life and career as a dirty country singer (Dirty Country Movie--The Larry Pierce Story). Then in 2005 was approached by a raunchy touring rock band from Colorado Springs (-itis) to do a live show with them in Minneapolis, and has since traveled the country and done several live shows with them. Pierce then recorded his fourteenth album (Pussywhipped) on a new private label with his newfound band and announced the release on The Howard Stern Show 1/9/07. Before his death, Pierce had become somewhat of a regular on Howard’s show, including phone-in’s and live appearances, while his music is often played coming in and out of radio breaks.
