Arkansas Woodchopper

Arkansas Woodchopper, or Arkie (b. Luther Ossenbrink, March 2, 1906-June 23, 1981) was an American country musician.

He was born in the Ozarks near Kobnoster, Missouri, to a family who owned a farm and a general store. He learned to play guitar and fiddle, and his first job in music was performing on radio in Kansas City on KMBC in 1928. He started at WLS in 1930, performing on their "National Barn Dance", and became one of the show's most popular performers, continuing there until 1959. During this time he also released records for Columbia Records and Conqueror Records.
