Marty Stuart And His Fabulous Superlatives

Country Music Hall Of Famer Marty Stuart is set to release his first new album in six years, "Altitude," on May 19th via Snakefarm. Recorded in Nashville with his longtime band, The Fabulous Superlatives, the project was written mainly on the road as Stuart and the band toured in support of Byrds co-founders Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman. The album's title track is out today (2/8). 

"I’ve been quoted as saying the most outlaw thing you can possibly do in Nashville, TN, these days is to play Country music. It can be done," said Stuart. "On 'Altitude,' there’s twin fiddles, steel guitar, and the legendary Pig Robbins playing piano on what turned out to be one of his last recording sessions. The song is a reminder to me, and to anyone else still interested, that there’s a few of us out here who still know how to make authentic Country music." Stuart and the band will kick off a coast-to-coast tour on February 9th in Chattanooga, TN, as well as a run of summer dates with Chris Stapleton and a performance at Stagecoach on April 29th.
