John Marty Stuart (born September 30, 1958) is an American country and bluegrass music singer, songwriter, and musician. Active since 1968, Stuart initially toured with Lester Flatt, and then in Johnny Cash's road band before beginning work as a solo artist in the early 1980s.
Banjo is handled mostly by Rob McCoury and the superb Craig Smith, and Del McCoury adds two fine lead vocals, the jaunty “We’re Steppin’ Out Tonight” and Marty Stuart and Harlan Howard’s mournful “Oh, What A Silent Night”.

- "The Whiskey Ain't Workin" From 1991's 'It's All About to Change' Stuart not only co-wrote the Grammy-winning "The Whiskey Ain't Workin," a No. 2 country hit for Travis Tritt -- he also sings on the tune, which features a narrator who's ready to stop wallowing in whiskey (and other drinks) after a breakup.
- "Tempted" From 1991's 'Tempted' "Tempted" is a ragged, almost Springsteen-esque country-meets-rock 'n' roll tune that examines romantic intrigue. Specifically, the narrator sees passionate possibility, and is thinking about giving things a go, even though the other person could break his heart.
- "Little Things" From 1991s 'Tempted' "Little Things" is a quintessential Stuart tune. Start with its cliche-free romantic lyrics ("I want to see you again, I've got to find a way / Just to hear those little things you say"), add in burnt-crisp guitar twang and rock 'n' roll piano, and then add a rakish, earnest vocal performance on top of it all.
- "Burn Me Down" From 1991's 'Tempted' Combining the hip-swinging grooves of early rock 'n' roll with the rootsy vibe of a country bar band, "Burn Me Down" was another Top 10 hit for Stuart, featuring a narrator giving into passion without reservation: "Your kisses burn like flames / I go crazy when you're around / So touch me, turn me on, and burn me down."
Aside from his longtime employer, Ricky Skaggs, Hicks is joined by Marty Stuart, Del McCoury, Ronnie McCoury, Rob McCoury, and others. Fiddle Patch is a fun, toe-tapping set that respects Hicks' bluegrass roots while leavening them with other influences.
