  • Marty Stuart destroying Orange Blossom Special, a song that is normally done on the fiddle.
    His rendition on the mandolin is incredible, and showcases his musical genius and creativity.
    Go see him live while he is still at his peak!

    Saw him do this in concert. You're sitting there listening and watching him play, then suddenly realize he's been playing flawlessly for about five minutes like there's nothing to it. True professional.

      Marty clearly loves every aspect of playing and performing. Clearly loves practicing mandolin and guitar. You don’t get this good ~ and get better ~ unless practicing nourishes your soul. I’ve seen videos of him grinning at other musicians, just checking out their technique likely to learn something new, enjoying making music, working hard doing it. I get it.
