History
Encore Live started creating fun in 2002 as a one man show in Edna, Kansas. Walter Kinzie successfully organized a concert for C.A.R.E.S. Awareness, a benefit fundraiser for a friend fighting for his life against a deadly blood disease. As Walter worked the concert, he realized his passion and his future lay in event planning and execution. Walter quickly developed his aptitude for organizing and carrying out large events into a business in the heart of Fort Worth, Texas in 2011. Working originally under the name WK Productions, Kinzie produced events with famous entertainers such as Brooks and Dunn and Faith Hill. In January of 2012, Lance Byrd, who was a career political campaign manager, oil industry networker and entrepreneur, partnered with Walter to officially form Encore Live. Lance has always had a passion for events and creating fun, starting when he planned his first large student body concert in college. In 2013, Gary Osier, an icon in the music industry, partnered with W
