- Chris Scruggs (born Christopher Alan Davies-Scruggs December 16, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who plays a variety of instruments including guitar, steel guitar, bass, mandolin, fiddle, and drums. He is the only child of singer Gail Davies and songwriter Gary Scruggs. His maternal grandfather is the late country singer Tex Dickerson and his paternal grandfather is bluegrass banjo player Earl Scruggs.
Scruggs joined the country band BR549 in 2002 playing guitar and serving as the co-lead singer. While in the band, he wrote and performed the title track of their 2004 release, Tangled in the Pines. Scruggs remained in BR549 until 2005 when he left the band to pursue a solo career. Scruggs released his first solo album, entitled Anthem, in 2009 on Cogent Records. Scruggs produced the album and wrote 11 of the 12 songs; Ron Davies, Scruggs's uncle (best known for having penned "It Ain't Easy" for David Bowie) wrote the remaining song.
As a side musician, Scruggs has played behind many notable artists including Charlie Louvin, Andrew Bird, Ray Price, Robbie Fulks, Jools Holland, Giant Sand, Peter Noone, Bobby Bare, M. Ward, Michael Nesmith, She & Him, Billy Walker, Suzy Bogguss, and Marty Stuart.
Scruggs is currently the bass guitarist in Marty Stuart's Fabulous Superlatives band, taking over for Paul Martin in 2015.

Kayton Roberts played for a host of country icons like Ricky Skaggs, Marty Stuart, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Randy Travis and Alison Krauss, and he also served as a longtime member of Canadian country legend Hank Snow’s Rainbow Ranch Boys.
Roberts played steel on Krauss’ “I Know Who Holds Tomorrow,” Aaron Tippin’s “You’ve Got to Stand for Something” and several albums from Riders in the Sky and Hank Williams III.
The skilled musician was drawn to Snow because of his steel player. After learning to emulate that style, he joined Snow’s band in 1967 as a rhythm player before eventually transitioning to a pedal-less steel in 1968.
“When I was young, I was fascinated by ‘Big’ Joe Talbot. He was the [steel guitar] sound that made Hank Snow,” he said in an interview with Steel Guitar World in 1992, “Little did I know that those early fascinations would someday be my bread and butter. Joe Talbot has been one of my all-time heroes. Really and truly, the job I hold today is because of his style, and the fact that I could play his style.”
He stayed in the Rainbow Ranch Boys until Snow’s death in 1999, performing regularly at the Grand Ole Opry. According to the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame citation, the Florida native’s signature sound was "smooth bar slants, singing, harmonics and Hawaiian bird calls" on his 1951 Fender custom.
He was inducted into the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame in 2012. He died in 2017 at the age of 83.

Wow, real country music at it's most magnificent..! R.I.P. Kayton Roberts, he could make that lap steel talk..Fab..!
Golly, Kayton brought an amp into our shop a few years ago, had to have been 80 or more at the time. He was the most Lucid 80 year old I'd ever witnessed, telling stories and cracking jokes like he was 15. I had no clue who he was. What a friendly, generous, loving guy; the world is worse without him with us.
It’s very rare I hear someone do Hank Sr and think they do it justice… he’s the reason I don’t play country…. What could you possibly add to that? To the greatest American songwriter? Chris and Kayton tho, wow! They do it justice, they could have made it back when those songs were new. Kayton is Don Helms level… blown away by him everytime I watch him play. Thank you Marty and Kayton and all of you!!! This has really helped me lately maybe more than I can express here. It’s nice to remember the old Alabama farm place.
Listen to that dang steel!!!Chris Scruggs is one cool dude!! Thanks for signing my old geeetar!!!
Look at that Bigsby electric what a work of art
Bigsby Standard by Paul Bigsby.
Magical steel playing.
His Grandaddy would be proud of him.
Kayton Roberts is the SHIT!!! I love this stuff so much
Excellent Real Country.
Ain't heard this one since I was a kid .. only time Momma didn't need to take a switch to make me come in the house , i wasn't gonna miss Johnny Yuma
Saw Connie in 1973, she's just as good here.
This is so awesome to see and hear Chris playing with Marty and The Fabulous Superlatives before he became a member. Awesome!
I am so proud to live and gig in Nashville. Love ya Marty! Great band, just amazing. Shout out to some great flat picking KV. With Chris, Kayton and your solid drummer Harry, it just duddn't git any better.
what a super show and super musicians. Its been a long time since Ive been into country music. This collection of monster musicians make me want to get back into country after a 5 year break from any music. So anyone looking for an Australian drummer ( no where near the calibre of the musicians)
Music I grew up on
Great show love the songs and music love you guys Thank you guys for doing country music
My favorite Marty Stuart Show yet.....

Ol boy Kayton has got it goin on
Love the marty Stuart show . Chris Scruggs love to here him play the steel maybe next time he is on your show he can play the Georgia steel guitsr
Great stuff all around with the possible exception of the Sultan of Goodlettsville. Could have used his time for another Chris/Kayton number.
Love this show - wish Marty was still doing them
Look at that rare Bigsby Standard guitar.
Yeah not many of them floating around. Jonny Paycheck played a Bigsby bass
Handbuilt by Paul Bigsby, the one behind the Bigsby vibrato. Less than 30 were made.
Is it a real one tho or a clone? Those can grab 6 figures….
Marty said it " deep country music"
Certainly, volumes could be said of the players featured here. But a word, of thousands that could/should be said, of the MC, Mr Eddie Stubbs, an impeccable voice of Nashville radio, an authoratative scholar of country music and a former member of The Johnson Mtn boys.
A great fiddle player -
Great music: just love it!
Brilliant show
❤phenomenal
Thanks for sharing
GO STUBBS!!!!
Connie Smith still sounds like she did in the sixties.
TRUST Marty,you never want Connie Smith to pick you up at 3 Am in the morning from the local~~~~
What’s the name of the opening and closing instrumental?
La Tingo Tango by Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives
