Musician. Author. Speaker.
Award-winning family entertainer and author, Jim “Mr. Stinky Feet” Cosgrove has delighted audiences for three decades with his energetic brand of family-folk-rock. With over 5,300 performances in 38 U.S. states and six countries, he’s become a beloved favorite with families and venues across the country. His ten family albums have earned a dozen national parenting awards, and his songs and videos have been streamed millions of times. He is the author of four children’s books. In 2024, he was voted “Best Local Author” by Kansas City Magazine and “Best Band” by The Johnson County Post.
Cosgrove has books for grown-up fans too. Everybody Gets Stinky Feet is a collection of essays from his years as a parenting columnist for The Kansas City Star. And his true-crime memoir, Ripple (yes, seriously) is available on audio platforms or in paperback.
Inspirational Speaker
Through his own educational journey as a children’s musician and author, Jim discovered that children have much to teach adults about communicating, attaining goals, and living in the present. Now he’s bringing these child-inspired lessons to grown-up audiences to live a more joy-filled life. Jim believes “what’s effective for success on the playground is effective for success in the boardroom.”
