NASHVILLE, TN - (August 26, 2008) - Country Music Icon Marty Stuart will premiere his new television series The Marty Stuart Show this November starting with the first 26 episodes airing Saturday nights on RFD-TV.  The Marty Stuart Show will begin production in September at Nashville's NorthStar Studios, home of RFD-TV.
 
The 30-minute episodes, hosted and produced by Stuart, will be a part of RFD-TV's new Saturday night prime time lineup with HEE HAW, Postcards From Nebraska, and Music & Motors.  Each show will feature music by Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives, as well as his wife Country Queen Connie Smith and performance segments from the best that country music and American music has to offer.  Radio personality Eddie Stubbs will serve as the show's announcer and Stuart's sidekick on every episode.
 
"I want to establish a show that gives a voice and stage to traditional country music," explains Stuart.  "This show is about authenticity...from the artists who visit us in the studio every week to the people watching at home in America who enjoy watching weekly shows like The Porter Wagoner Show, The Wilburn Brothers and Flatt and Scruggs. This show will be related to that style of programming and hopefully entertain Country Fans in a similar way"
