He grew up in a family bluegrass band, and his father, Marvin Cardwell, was a talented multi-instrumentalist as well as a collector of vintage instruments. The senior Cardwell fronted one of the first live music shows in Branson, MO at Jesse James Confusion Hill in the 1960s as "Marvin Cardwell and the Country Boys." The group played a combination of traditional country music and bluegrass, performing at county fairs, town festivals, coon hunts, church events, and they even had their own live radio show every Saturday afternoon based in Aurora, MO.

Press Quotes
The vet vocalist stands tall to provide songs that will lead us out of the dark times that are washing over the land. A timely collection that doesn't preach but takes the lead, this head bobbing music has no time to cotton to bad times, all of which should stay away from our doors. Smoking.
