Archive material and source history
Marty James Garton Jr. is a country singer-songwriter from Nashville. He started playing guitar young and took cues from Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Merle Haggard. His debut album 'Backroads & Barrooms' came out in 2000.
His song 'Run Me In The Dirt (Throwdown)' got attention on country radio in 2005. That track gave its name to his follow-up album, which also included 'Got a Lot of Country' and 'Forever Yours.'
He's put out records fairly steadily since then, including 'Back to Basics' in 2009, 'Redemption' in 2012, and 'The Road Less Traveled' in 2015. His music tends to work traditional country sounds with some rock and blues, and the lyrics usually lean toward stories about regular life.
