About this item

Five time GRAMMY-winner Marty Stuart will release Way Out West, his 18th studio album, on March 10 on Superlatone. The album was conceived as a love letter by one of Country music's living legends, whom has played with everyone from Cash to Lester Flatt, to the lonely but magical American West, specifically the promised land of California. "If you go and sit by yourself in the middle of the Mojave Desert at sundown and you're still the same person the next morning when the sun comes up, I'd be greatly surprised," says Stuart. "It is that spirit world of the West that enchants me." Produced by Mike Campbell (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) , and featuring the Fabulous Superlatives --guitarist Kenny Vaughan, drummer Harry Stinson and new member, bassist Chris Scruggs-- Marty's longtime band, which NPR Music said could "melt your heart with four-part harmonies, rock your bones with honky tonk, and dazzle you with picking worthy of their name," Way Out West is a cinematic tour-de-force.
