That’s the musical side of the event. At the heart of the show Is my love and respect for MusiCares. This year of all years MusiCares is needed after the flood the city just experienced. I know of musicians who’ve lost their homes, vehicles, instruments, and in a couple of instances, families. With that in mind, me and my f riends are going to play our hearts out for our friends who are hurting and in need. I’ve called lots of numbers in my phone book and invited wonderful people to come and participate in the Late Night Jam. It’s actually quite staggering who is coming.” Joining Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives for this year’s marathon of live music are Superstar Keith Urban, Songwriter Hall of Fame members Dallas Frazier and Cowboy Jack Clement, Ronnie Milsap, Steel Guitar Hall of Fame member Ralph Mooney, Connie Smith, theTennessee Mafia Jug Band and a few very special surprise guests representing the Country Music and Rock & Roll Halls of Fame To date, Marty Stuart’s Late Night Jam has raised over $150,000 for MusiCares, the philanthropic arm of The Recording Academy. The organization provides a safety net of critical assistance for music people in times of need. The Marty Stuart Show is RDF-TV’s highest rated show and adds a new chapter each week to the tradition of simple, electrifying country TV with varied live sounds, and top level artists. Upcoming guests include Merle Haggard, Vince Gill, Dolly Parton, Patty Loveless and Kitty Wells. Tickets for the Late Night Jam are available now at www.ryman.com.
