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.
First time for the Late Night Jam and my daughters and I loved it. It was nice to see so many older country legends and hear traditional country music. We plan to go every year now to open our CMA Festival. Only next time, we will take a nap!! Def got our money's worth and more. The show didn't end until 2 AM!!! Again, LOVED IT!
My family and friends have attended the last 5 years as a kickoff to the CMA festival. We all agree that it is the very best part of the week. I'm just sorry that we didn't start going to the show starting will number one. We never know who will appear, but we always know that they will be great. Thanks Marty and Connie!
We enjoyed Marty Stuart's Late Night Jam more that we enjoyed the festival this year! Marty always has an awesome line-up of entertainers!!
Music was great, venue was the best I have been in - not a bad view anywhere in the house
Marty Stuart and his super talented band are a must see!! This was my second straight late night jam. Marty plays his own tunes as well as tunes with his variety of classic guests and newcomers. They even pull out some oldies but goodies to duet on. Even though the show starts late, the energy is always high.
The Late Nite Jam was awesome. Dolly Parton was a kick
AWESOME!!! AWESOME!!! AWESOME!!! BEST SHOW TO B AT!!!
The evening was amazing with lots of new and old talent. Love to watch Marty Stuart play the guitar and the love between Connie Smith and Marty was obvious. So much talent for one night and 3-1/2 hours of music.
I absolutely loved this show! This was our first time at The Ryman. The guest were fabulous and Marty Stuart was outstanding! I would highly recommend this show to anyone that loves country music.
Marty and Connie are amazing and have a talent for bringing the best acts to the great stage of the wonderful Ryman!!!!!!
Being a long time fan of Marty Stuart, it was impossible to let go this opportunity to see him live. This proved to be a night full of real traditional country...with tons of stars and great music....This man surely knows how to preserve the real country music
*This was our first visit to Marty's Midnight Show *The show was terrific; enjoyed every minute of it, and the guests were great! *Marty is true depiction of what Country Music is all about *Marty is a great singer/musician, as well as a great guy. *The Superlatives are a fantastic band. *We truly enjoyed the show as a whole, but the best was when Marty/the Superlatives performed. We would have like to have heard more from them. *We plan to attend his show again in the future.
We didn't realize what a big deal this was when we were buying tickets - just looking for something to do while visiting Nashville.... but we were blown away! There were tons of acts, and all of them were stellar! Felt like we got a guided tour of classic country music, including a big set by Dolly!
Great music!!! Dolly was Dolly. The 3 sisters on fiddle were unreal!!! The square dancing was fun to watch. All the artist were great! Marty & Connie put on a great night of music. Will go again and let all my friends nknow what they missed.
Marty Stuart alwas gives a stellar performance in any concert venue but his Late night jam is spectacular! He has new, old and upcoming people on his show. You never know who will stop by unannounced. It is always worth going. I have been every year since he started and would never miss one. I would recommend this show to anyone! It is all for a good cause as well as wonderful entertainment. You wouldn't be disappointed.
What I like most about the Ryman: it is up close and personal! The line up is fabulous ... Everyone seems to really enjoy entertaining!
This was one of the best concerts I've been to in a long time. Relaxed homey atmosphere!!! Marty was FANTASTIC!! Dolly was WONDERFUL!! Acoustics were EXCELLENT!! Can't wait for next year!! When I was leaving I ran into Mel Tillis and he grabbed my hand and gave me a twirl!!
We had an absolutely great time at the Marty Stuart Late Night Jam. Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives are phenomenal musicians - so very talented. Marty had the show jammed pack with talent - we loved the Quebe Sisters, Connie Smith and Dolly Parton. The really nice suprise was Ricky Skaggs. The music didn't stop and the show just kept going. We will be getting tickets next year...Marty, please make sure you do this again in 2012!!
Wow!!!! What a show. Fourth year for my wife and I, this event to us is the highlite of Fan Fair.
This was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The Late Night Jam started at 10:00 and went on till 1:40. The amount of talent presented that night was incredible. Marty Stuart, Folly Parton, Mel Tillis, Ricky Scaggs, Dewayne Eddie, Connie Smith and others. It never slowed down and I didn't want it to end.
