Phillip Sweet (of Little Big Town) was raised in Cherokee Village, Arkansas in the
Ozarks. He grew up in a musical family. His mother had a weekend country variety
show and all of his brothers and sisters were involved in music in some way. Phillip
learned to play guitar and keyboards and wrote his first song when he was nine years
old. When he was ten, he became a featured soloist in his church's touring musical
group.
