MPR’s Leif Enger interviews Marvin Rainwater, an American country/rockabilly singer and songwriter from the 1950’s, who’s been living the quiet life in Aitkin County, playing guitar and tending his dahlias.
Rainwater was a frequent guest on Arthur Godfrey's TV show. Maybe you saw him, wearing a distinctive headband. Rainwater had a string of country and rockabilly hits, but pretty much fell off the radar in the 1970s.
