His debut radio performance came in 1926 on the National Barn Dance show on WLS-AM in Chicago, Illinois.
[2] In 1935[3] he was working at WBZ-AM in Boston, Massachusetts, where he performed with a band that included young singer and banjo player Marshall Jones.
Kincaid teased the 22-year-old fellow Kentuckian for always being grumpy when he came to the studio to do the early morning broadcast, nicknaming him "Grandpa" Jones.
