Biografía:
Jimmie Rodgers (8 de septiembre de 1897 – 26 de mayo de 1933) fue un cantautor estadounidense de música country. Fue el primer músico en convertirse en una estrella del country. Su influencia en la música de raíces estadounidenses es incalculable, ya que ha influido a prácticamente todos los músicos que han desarrollado el country en el siglo XX, entre los que cabe destacar al también influyente Hank Williams.
Aunque nació en Pine Springs (Misisipi) él siempre se consideró de Meridian (Misisipi).
