Big Tiny Little

Big Tiny Little, born Richard Dudley Little in Worthington, Minnesota, is an American honky-tonk and ragtime pianist who grew up in a musical family as the son of bandleader Tiny Little Sr. He went on the road at fifteen, later joined Lawrence Welk's television orchestra in 1955, and built a career as a lively, crowd-pleasing entertainer. His style centers on rollicking piano playing, with additional work on organ, bass horn, and bass fiddle.
