'''Marty Stuart''' (born '''John Marty Stuart''' [[September 30]], [[1958]] in [[Philadelphia, Mississippi]]) is an [[United States|American Country Music Singer]], known for both his traditional style, and eclectic mergings of [[rockabilly]], [[honky tonk]], and traditional country music. Infamous for his flamboyantly [[hedonism|hedonist]] party image, he is known for wearing [[rhinestone]]-studded "[[Nudie suit]]s" onstage.
*[[Christopher Durang]], American playwright
*[[Edwin Forrest Durang]], American architect
Born '''John Marty Stuart''', Stuart was obsessed with country music, teaching himself to play the [[guitar]] and [[mandolin]]. By the age of 12, he was performing with the bluegrass [[family act]] [[The Sullivan Family]]. He later met [[Roland White]], a member of [[Lester Flatt]]'s band, and opened for them in [[Delaware]] in [[1972]]. He remained with the band until [[1978]], when Flatt retired due to health problems.

Stuart went on to do session work with [[Vassar Clements]] and [[Doc Watson]], and joined [[Johnny Cash]]'s backup band in [[1980]]. He released his first solo album, ''[[Busy Bee Cafe]]'', in [[1982]], a jam album for [[Sugar Hill Records (folk)|Sugar Hill]], with guest appearancs including Cash, Watson, and [[Earl Scruggs]]. He left Cash's band in [[1985]], signing with [[Columbia Records]], and released his [[self-titled]] debut album in [[1986]]. Although it had a [[Top 20]] country hit, the album sold poorly, and he was dropped by Columbia. Afterwards, he rejoined the Sullivans as their mandolinist.
In [[1989]], Stuart joined with [[Music Corporation of America|MCA]], and released ''[[Hillbilly Rock]]'', which was more successful, gaining significant media attention, including reviewers who compared him to [[Dwight Yoakam]]. In [[1991]], he released ''[[Tempted]]'', which was also successful, with three top 10 hits. In [[1992]] he released ''[[This One's Gonna Hurt You]]'', which was his first [[gold album]]. The title track had a duet with [[Travis Tritt]].
With his sales slipping afterwards, Stuart struggled to reinvent himself, and MCA released a [[Greatest Hits (Marty Stuart album)|Greatest Hits]] collection in [[1994]]. Stuart went on to appear in a series of ''[[Marty Party]]'' concert specials on [[The Nashville Network]]. In [[1996]] he became president of the [[Country Music Foundation]], and married [[Connie Smith]] in [[1997]]. He left MCA in [[2000]], joining [[Sony]], releasing a new album in [[2003]]. In 2005, Stuart launched a custom record label, Superlatone Records, to issue overlooked Southern gospel and roots music recordings. Stuart released three critically acclaimed collections on Superlatone, "Souls' Chapel," "Badlands" and "Live at the Ryman."
Stuart has one of the largest collections of clothing associated with country music's past, featuring classic suits by [[Nudie suit|Nudie]] and [[Turk (tailor)|Turk]] from such greats as [[Rose Maddox]], [[Porter Wagoner]] and [[Hank Williams]].
On [[June 23]] [[2004]], Stuart was arrested in [[Hendersonville, Tennessee]], on suspicion of [[Driving under the influence|DUI]].{{Fact|date=February 2007}}
In October 2005, Stuart released a concept album, "Badlands: Ballads Of The Lakota", which pays tribute to the Sioux culture in what is now South Dakota.
