RUSTY AND DOUG KERSHAW WERE BORN IN AN UNINCORPORATED COMMUNITY CALLED TIEL RIDGE IN CAMERON PARISH, LOUISIANA. DOUG, THE OLDER OF THE TWO FIRST BECAME INTERESTED IN CAJUN MUSIC DURING PARTIES THEIR PARENTS WOULD HOST ON THE FAMILY'S HOUSEBOAT IN LOUISIANA, WHERE HE FIRST HEARD CAJUN BANDS PLAYING THE MUSIC. DOUG INITIALLY SPOKE LOUISIANA FRENCH AND DID NOT LEARN ENGLISH UNTIL THE AGE OF EIGHT. BY THAT TIME HE HAD MASTERED THE FIDDLE, WHICH HE PLAYED FROM THE AGE OF FIVE AND HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO TEACHING HIMSELF TO PLAY 28 INSTRUMENTS. DOUG'S FIRST GIG WAS AT A LOCAL BAR, THE BUCKET OF BLOOD WHERE HE WAS ACCOMPANIED BY HIS MOTHER.

LATER ON, DOUG TAUGHT RUSTY TO PLAY GUITAR AND THEY FORMED A BAND, THE CONTINENTAL PLAYBOYS, WITH OLDER BROTHER NELSON "PEEWEE" KERSHAW IN 1948. WITH THE DEPARTURE OF "PEEWEE" FROM THE GROUP IN THE EARLY 1950s, RUSTY AND DOUG CONTINUED TO PERFORM AS A DUO. THEY WERE SIGNED TO HICKORY RECORDS AND RECORDED FOR THE LABEL BETWEEN 1955 AND 1961 WHEN ALL THE CUTS ON THIS ALBUM WERE RECORDED. THEY CHARTED FIVE TIMES ON THE HOT COUNTRY SONGS CHARTS.
