Two of the most important country singers in the past 100 years used the
names of two different towns for their stage names.

Harold Lloyd Jenkins used the name Conway Twitty as his pseudonym and
renamed himself after Conway, Arkansas and Twitty, Texas though he was born
in Missouri.

Vernon Dalhart, one of his many pseudonyms, was born Marion Try Slaughter
got his most famous pseudonym from the towns of Vernon and Dalhart both in
Texas.

Does anyone out there know of any other singer who has done this?
