5-time GRAMMY winner, Country Music Hall of Famer and AMA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Marty Stuart has released his new album Altitude via Snakefarm.
The critically-acclaimed collection is his first album release in more than 6 years and will be followed by Stuart’s 20th annual Late Night Jam at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN, on June 7 featuring performances by Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives, Joe Walsh, John Oates, The Del McCoury Band, Sierra Ferrell, Chapel Hart, Connie Smith, Gary Mule Deer, Jake Worthington, The Grand Ole Opry Square Dancers and surprise guests.
Stuart and his band will then hit the road with Chris Stapleton for a US summer tour. Find a full list of tour dates here: www.martystuart.net.
Altitude is now available to stream and purchase.
Recorded in Nashville with his long-time band The Fabulous Superlatives – Kenny Vaughan, Harry Stinson and Chris Scruggs – the collection finds Stuart picking up where he left off on 2017’s Way Out West, exploring a cosmic country landscape populated by dreamers and drifters, misfits and angels, honky-tonk heroes and lonesome lovers.
Written primarily on the road, the collection was inspired in large part by Stuart’s 2018 tour supporting Byrds co-founders Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman, who reunited for the 50th anniversary of their seminal Sweetheart Of The Rodeo album.
