About Marty Stuart
Marty Stuart in Concert
There's not an ounce of artificiality in Marty Stuart's stage act, but you'd better believe he puts on a show. He's a natural-born entertainer who started learning about live performance by backing country music legends. As a bandleader he exudes an effortless grace that makes the music live and breathe. Stuart's got guitar chops for miles and once he digs in he doesn't mess around, but he also knows how to get a crowd psyched up in a completely organic way to amp up the fun. When he travels with his band The Fabulous Superlatives, a true country music wrecking crew of top-tier players, Stuart loves to turn on a dime from hard-charging honky-tonk roof raisers to gentle acoustic ballads, keeping the crowd in the palm of his hand every step of the way.
Marty Stuart Background
With a rich, varied career that stretches back to the '70s, there's not much Marty Stuart hasn't done. He's been a blazing-hot bluegrass guitar picker, a country-rocking rebel, a roots-conscious neo-traditionalist, a Nashville hitmaker and Johnny Cash's right-hand man. First and foremost Stuart has emerged as a keeper of the country music flame, championing authenticity above all and forsaking trendiness in favor of a deep-down country spirit. He got his start playing with bluegrass legend Lester Flatt while just a teenager, and went on to work with Johnny Cash's band, but by the end of the '80s he was a country star in his own right. He lit up the charts with hits like "Tempted," "This One's Gonna Hurt You (For a Long, Long Time)" and "Hillbilly Rock." In later years he became a standard-bearer for classic country, mixing it with rock and folk influences as the muse demanded, achieving what amounts to the truest form of Americana.

by Steve on 10/30/23Uptown Theatre Napa - NapaMarty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives gave a great concert at the Uptown Theatre in Napa friday Oct 27,2023. Singer songwriter Shelby Ann(from Napa) was a good opening act and then they thrilled the crowd with lots of great songs and a variety of genres of music. All are incredibly talented musicians and the Uptown theatre venue is not to be missed.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Authentic and Extremely Entertaining
by Big Ted on 10/20/23Avalon Theatre - Grand JunctionMarty and the band put in a show that was virtuoso and yet heartwarming. They can change the mood on a dime and take you there with them. Although as Country as can be, they do Americana and surf rock without (literally) missing a beat. And they can rip it up with the tightest rockabilly you will ever here. Highly recommended!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Amazing performance, distracted audience
by Blair on 8/22/23Marty Stuart and The Fabulous Superlatives are amazingly talented musicians. Their performance was a demonstration of their mastery of country music and beyond. The audience in my section didn’t seem to appreciate their performance and at times became a distraction. My appreciation of the music wasn’t diminished.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Marty brings the Party
by Moe on 8/22/23We lived the show! Marty played a few of his hits but he and the band played a lot of older country songs and Bluegrass. So enjoyable! Only bummer was we couldn't take pics of the fabulous suits they wore.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Country Americana at its finest
by Carpalboss on 8/22/23First off, Marty Stuart and his band (The Fabulous Superlatives) are all entertaining and talented musicians individually as well within the group. The individual components showcased their talents during the course of the show. You get the feeling that any of the members of this band could be the front man in their own band. Combined they have a very unique sound that translates into whatever they are playing. (Country, Gospel, Americana, Cowboy, whatever). It all sounds wonderful. They combined the right amount of original old and new material with several country classic covers that added up to a wonderful evening of music. The tales that Marty weaves in between the songs makes you feel you've known him all your life. I highly recommend seeing them and I hope to have the opportunity to see them perform again very soon.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Outstanding!
by Mike on 8/22/23It is one thing to see a Country Music Icon...it's another thing to be blown away by their performance. My wife and I had seen Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives on TV and thought they were a little hokey. But, the live concert was outstanding....so many genres of Country Music and some Surf Sounds thrown in, as well. My only disappointment was that we weren't allowed to take pics to download on Social Media. I would love to see them again!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Great show!
by Langod on 8/22/23No complaints. Audio quality was excellent. Marty and his band sounded great. Vocals were strong and on pitch. Show was a bit different than expected because they only played country music and very few of their hits. Show featured all band members’ musical talents. Only disappointing thing was they requested no photos. I would have liked to take some pictures.
