He finished high school in 1963 at Waterloo, Alabama. After that he moved to Nashville, Tennessee to seek a career in Country Music. The First year in Nashville was spent working in an auto parts warehouse during the day, attending Falls Business college at night, and singing and playing music on the weekends. In 1964, he formed a band made up of college students. This band worked weekends playing at school auditoriums, fairs and most any other place where people would listen. They played at radio and television stations in Nashville that showcased local talent and became well known through that media.

Dates began to come along for this band. They traveled to Nashville and cut the first record for Marvin Morrow and fulfilled his life long dream. Radio and Television appearances began to materialize and show dates were getting closer together. Some of the members did not want to play as much as was being demanded of the band, so the band broke up. The last Country band Marvin would be associated with was formed at this time. They were called The Stagelighters and were made up of mostly younger musicians. A record was recorded and released and they began to travel over the United states playing shows with many famous Country Music Stars such as, Merle Haggard, Tex Ritter, Ernie Ashworth, Dave Dudley, George Morgan, Hank Locklin, Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper, and Bill Carlisle to name a few.
