Chanteur US né Marvin Karlton Percy, le 2 juillet 1925 à Wichita (Kansas). De sang Cherokee, il a démontré que les cowboys et les indiens peuvent faire bon ménage dans la Country Music. Marvin Rainwater a débuté en 1946 et a enregistré au début des années cinquante pour Four Star et Coral Records. En 1956, il passe chez MGM où il obtient un premier hit. A cette époque, il se produisait habillé en indien, après MGM, il enregistra sans grand succès pour Warner Bros., Warwick et Brave Records, son propre label.
