Marty Allen

Marty Has played many a matinee on Saturdays at the ale house. Welcome to the official site of Roots artist Marty Allen. Coining his shows as “All my heroes aren’t on radio” it is no wonder Allen grew under the influences of Cash, Jennings, and Prine. Kind of sounds like an out-law firm, a group you wouldn’t mind representing you in country music today. Marty has just released his fourth CD entitled "Blue Church Road" featuring eleven original songs. Expect more of an organic sound with the use of fiddle, dobro, upright bass, and pedal steel backing story driven tunes delving into the pain of love gone bad, long distant truckers, and growing up as a kid, fishing, playing marbles, and lighting up that first smoke.... “That’s where I lit up my first smoke, tried to wash it down with a bottle of coke, and I tried real hard not to choke cause the girls thought I was cool, so cool….”.
