About the artist

William Jennings ‘‘Billy’’ Cox (August 4, 1897-December 10, 1968) was an American early country singer, harmonica player and guitarist. Ranked as one of West Virginia’s premier country music vocalists and songwriters during the 1930s. Born near Charleston, Cox learned to play guitar and harmonica in his youth and started performing on WOBU (later WCHS) radio in 1928. He recorded for Gennett, 1929–31, and from 1933 to 1940 for American Record Corporation, which later became Columbia.
