Rockabilly Hall of Famer Marty Wendell, a bona fide country music star from right here in the North Country, pulls together roots, Americana and, of course, Rockabilly on stage and on his 18 albums, some recorded at the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis. In addition to fronting his own band, he has toured with some of the biggest names in the music business, including Johnny Cash. Tonight’s 60th Anniversary Retrospective brings us the songs and stories old and new, classics and originals, that have shaped his remarkable life in music.
“These days record stores are full of folks trying to sound retro, but Wendell is just being himself – he doesn’t have to go back, cause he never left.” – Dave Malachowski, Daily Freeman
Special guest artists The Bluebillies will join in celebrating this 60th Anniversary show, with a performance by Greg Bucking honoring Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash’s recording of “Girl From The North Country.”
