An Evening with Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives

In a career spanning more than 50 years, dozens of albums, and too many shows to count, Marty Stuart continues to chart new territory at every opportunity. A five-time Grammy Award-winner, Congress of Country Music founder, Country Music Hall of Famer, and AMA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, he has left an indelible mark on successive eras of country music and culture. He went from accompanying Lester Flatt and Johnny Cash to launching a storied solo career highlighted by classic albums such as the Gold-certified Hillbilly Rock and Platinum-certified This One’s Gonna Hurt You, as well as Grammy Award-winning anthems including “The Whiskey Ain’t Workin’” [with Travis Tritt] and “Same Old Train.”
Immersing himself in film and television, he notably scored All the Pretty Horses, earning a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Original Score, along with Grammy Awards for Best Country Instrumental Performance for “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” and “Hummingbird.”
NPR put it best: “For millions, Marty Stuart is the very image of country music, splendid jackets, musical mastery, respect for tradition, and a good jolt of humor.” It would be hard-pressed to find a corner of country music he hasn’t influenced. He hosted the long-running fan favorite television series The Marty Stuart Show and remains a member of the Country Music Foundation and Grand Ole Opry. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2020 and founded the Congress of Country Music in Philadelphia, Mississippi, preserving and celebrating the genre’s history.
Joined by his longtime band The Fabulous Superlatives, he reaches new creative heights with his first full-length double LP of original instrumentals, Space Junk. The album’s cover art is a painting by Stuart’s longtime hero and friend Herb Alpert, leader of the Tijuana Brass, a group Stuart considers one of the greatest instrumental bands of all time. The interplay between Marty, Kenny Vaughan, Harry Stinson, and Chris Scruggs drives a sound filled with surf guitar, California rhythms, steel, and fluid fretwork. Space Junk feels like country music’s preeminent band landing on a Malibu beach and launching into an unforgettable, starlit jam.
