Larry Erny

Larry Erny began working with his father when he was a very young boy, emptying trash and sweeping the floors in the store and traveling with him as he set up and created school band programs and music instruments all over Louisiana. Larry's dad was the first music teacher in the state and saw the need for an instrument rental program. Their first store was in Houma, LA and they eventually settled in Lafayette. Over the years, the Erny family has assessed between 180,000 and 200,000 music students. Today, Professor Erny's Music has a thriving band instrument rental program and is a true family business.
