Country Music Hall of Famer, five-time Grammy-winner, and AMA LifetimeAchievement honoree Marty Stuart picks up where he left off onAltitude,his first new album in five years, exploring a cosmic country landscape populated by dreamers and drifters, misfits and angels, honky-tonk heroes and lonesome lovers. There’s a desert flare to the music here, a sweeping, spacious feel that conjures up wide-open horizons and endless stretches of two-lane highway, and the production is raw and cinematic tomatch, tipping its cap both to Bakersfield and Laurel Canyon as it balances jangle and twang in equal measure. While it would be easy for an artist as accomplished as Stuartto rest on his laurels,Altitudeinstead showcases the work of a searcher with an insatiable appetite for growth and reflection, one whose ambition, much like his keen wit and rich imagination, only seems to grow with each and every release.Born and raised in Philadelphia, MS, Stuart got his start in bluegrass legend LesterFlatts’ band at the tender age of thirteen, and by twenty-one, he was working in the studio and on the road with Johnny Cash. Though Stuart built his early reputation backing up royalty, it wasn’t long before Nashville recognized him as a star in his own right, and over the course of forty-plus years as a solo artist, he would go on tore lease more than twenty major label albums, scoring platinum sales, hit singles, and just about every honor the industry could bestow along the way.
