The Son's of the Pioneers, Roy Rogers, Gene Aurtry, and the rest.
Those were of course professional entertainers, not working cowboys.
I do know ten of more good people that are not professional musicians that play, or sing in church, weddings, and funerals
I guess in a way they are the same as "singing cowboys"? .
Just rambling, done now.

Don't forget "Singin' Sandy," King of the Kowboy Krooners. (John Wayne.) L.W.

There were some who sounded like wind howling through a drainpipe.

Check out the movie "Rustler's Rhapsody". It's a comedic update on the old singing cowboy shows.

Can’t enjoy any singing cowboy movie or pre-1940 or so westerns in general.
Earliest good western to me was Stage Coach

Ken Maynard was the first Singing Cowboy in 1930, when he sang two songs in 'Sons Of The Saddle'. <.> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGZeqOL7LKs <> Ken Maynard ~ Cowboys Lament

I'll try again someday with the new singing "cowboys". Everyday folks that play, and sing in church.
