ABOUT THE ARTIST
Jimmy Cantwell
Cañon City, CO
Jimmy Cantwell is a second-generation horseman who’s turned
a life full of experience into song. From his time as a soldier to
riding colts and training horses for both the public and the U.S.
Army—topped off with a little day work here and there—he’s got
plenty of stories to tell. Jimmy’s sound is pure country, western, and
everything in between. At the end of the day, he’s just a “good ol’
cowboy singer.”
