Appalachia Rust
Release Date: August 1, 2024

Marty Falle Releases “Appalachia Rust” -
The Bluegrass Standard Magazine September 1, 2024


Marty Falle just released his fourth original Bluegrass LP in less than one year. One of Nashville’s most prolific Bluegrass singer-songwriters released “Appalachia Rust” on August 1, 2024. I had a chance to catch up with Marty in Kentucky -

I am sitting with Bluegrass Artist Marty Falle on the tailgate of his Chevy Pick-Up truck. We are at his farm in rural Eastern Kentucky. I am told I am in Jackson County in the Eastern Kentucky Coalfields but who knows for sure. Marty's farm goes hundreds of acres bordering the Daniel Boone Forest. I have not seen a single sole for many miles. I have been out in the country before, but not quite like this. I keep asking Marty if we will run into Bigfoot and he just laughs and tells me that the “Bluegrass Boogeyman” is the least of our problems and that there is a better chance we will encounter venomous copperhead, cottonmouth and timber rattlers. He showed me a picture of a bear on his trail cam. He can tell I’m uneasy and smiles. He says there are a few jars of moonshine in the lower forty Tobacco Barn if I need it for medicinal purposes. We both laugh.

Falle’s farm has several old tobacco barns, some barely holding together. You can feel the history in this place. I asked him about one particular barn behind us on a big hill. It was the barn on his album cover – “My Farm, My Bluegrass”. Award winning Disney artist TJ Matousek created an original painting of this 150-year-old barn for the cover art. The place is haunting and breathtaking. The music inspired by this remote place is extraordinary. After all, this is the land of The Osborne Brothers, Bill Monroe, The Everly Brothers, Dwight Yoakam, and Marty Falle is falling right in line.

“My Farm, My Bluegrass” reached Number One on the APD Global Radio Indicator Chart for All Genres on the day of its release. In fact, an astounding eight out of the Top 10 singles for APD Bluegrass Global Radio Indicator Chart were borne from “My Farm, My Bluegrass”. The album itself reached Number One on the APD Global for all genres for the week of 8/20 – 8/27 and entered the Top 20 Album Roots Music Charts. “My Farm, My Bluegrass" continued its reign at Number One on the APD Global chart for well over a month. At one point, Falle had three records in the APD Top Five at the same time.

I asked Marty about the album and the songs. “I have always been fascinated with the history of Appalachia, especially Eastern Kentucky. I moved here a short time after graduating from Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. It’s a strange yet beautiful place. The roots run deep here. Most of my songwriting ideas live in that old barn over there, those Bluegrass hills over there or that dirt road down to the creek. The ghosts of all those families that worked this land and helped build this country are omnipresent. They have my respect and are a part of me. There are several gravesites on this land, some date back to the 1700s, the names on some of the headstones are crudely carved and barely legible, because families were too poor to afford a granite grave marker. They worked here, died here and are buried right here.”

One of my favorite parts of my visit was riding w/ Marty on his Brute Force ATV up mountains, down to the bottom land of Horse Lick Branch Creek and in and around the Daniel Boone Forest. His 12-year-old son Macklin calls the machine “Beef”. There were moments I thought we were lost or that the ATV would overturn on some cliff. Marty showed me a few homesteads that were 100 years gone, all that remained was a stone chimney. We talked about his song “Chimney Letters’ that he sang with Bluegrass Legend Dale Ann Bradley. “Yep, that’s the Chimney right there” as we motored past. Same with his epic “Big Barn Breakdown” song, “Yep, I wrote it about that old barn near the creek. You have to believe there was a barn dance or two on those old weathered boards”. When we got back to his truck, there was plenty of Winchester, Kentucky Ale8 soda pop on ice. I asked him about his #1 song “Ode to Ale 8”, he just smiled and we tipped back a cold one.

The main reason I asked for the interview was the news that Marty was releasing a new Bluegrass Record – “Appalachia Rust”. Marty sent me a sneak peak of the MP3s from the album. Frankly, I was stunned. The quality was incredible and the songs compelling. What is remarkable, at the very moment we were talking, his other singles and albums were topping the charts. In fact, Marty had two albums in the Top 20 Roots Global Charts that very day, “Born Again Bluegrass” and “Bluegrass Holy Land”. No other artist had two original recent albums on the chart. Even more amazing, his single “Tumbleweed” and “Grampa’s Jukebox” were in heavy rotation on Sirius XM Bluegrass Junction, and more than 20 other songs, written and performed by Falle were playing somewhere in the world on Terrestrial and Internet radio. I asked him point blank - Are you worried that you are cannibalizing yourself on the charts by releasing new songs so soon, “No. I honestly do not care. Life is short. Write, record, release and go to the next one”. I then asked - Have you considered taking a break from writing after three #1 albums in less than a year. He responded – “Not likely. As long as the songs keep coming, I am going to write them. I truly believe that each song is a gift from God. He gave me the talent, and I am not going to waste it. Some day this will all be gone. I am pedal to the metal right now”.

“Appalachia Rust” is the sixth album from American Bluegrass Artist Marty Falle. The “relentless” singer songwriter out of the Eastern Kentucky Coalfields created another original Roots Music gem scheduled for release on August 1, 2024. The “Appalachia Rust” project is bolstered with contributions from Nashville royalty, which includes Becky Buller (vocals), Dale Ann Bradley (Vocals), Mike Bub (Acoustic Bass), Rob Ickes (Dobro), Josh Matheny (Dobro), Carl Miner (Guitar), Marty Slayton (Vocals), Matt Menefee (Banjo), Kim Parent (Vocals), Jordan Rainer (Vocals) and Grammy Winning Producer, Jonathan Yudkin (Fiddle and Mandolin).

Marty Falle’s ongoing trajectory as a bluegrass artist continues unimpeded. Listeners and critics have taken note all along the way. That’s evidenced by the fact that in the last eleven months alone, Falle has garnered five Number One hits. Cashbox magazine hailed him as “an incredible American Country Bluegrass singer/songwriter and Nashville recording artist.” Keith Barncastle of The Bluegrass Standard concurred, stating "Marty is a bluegrass artist. It is essentially his passion. He has complete dedication to the genre, and his love of bluegrass combined with his well-honed talent has allowed him to create truly great songs loved by his many fans. Marty is a perfectionist. He works to perfect his songs and will not release any material until it meets his highest expectations.” Deano Graham of the "The Bluegrass Jamboree" says "Marty Falle. An endless fountain of creativity that speaks to the heart. Marty's musical messaging is universal, and needs to be heard by everyone." Rick Dollar of iHeart Radio states “Marty Falle is an American Original!."

“Appalachia Rust” is birthed in the American Heartland. Falle’s songs resonate in a way that makes each of them indelibly tied to the rich traditions of the bluegrass legacy and the stories that shaped the music. “Ramblin River Breakdown" is rousing and robust, the very essence of the spirit and tenacity that has furthered the appeal of bluegrass from its archival origins to its present populist appeal. “The Striker” and “Kentucky Flood” tap into the rich history of Appalachia, detailing both the challenges and triumphs of Kentuckians. The down-home instrumental “Cattywampus Clog” captures the joy and jubilation that gave reason to celebrate once the work was done.

Becky Buller joins Falle for the inspirational and powerful faith-based song “I’m On My Way”. The folksy” Sellathon Radio Show” reflects the influence of rural radio on small town farming communities in Appalachia. The emphatic "Dirt Floor Waltz” shares its own celebratory sound, manifest in the energy and exuberance that’s so essential to bluegrass basics. Bluegrass Legend, Dale Ann Bradley, sings on Falle’s stunning rendition of the Darrell Scott penned, “You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive”. Country Star Jordan Rainer and DJ "Big Al" Weekley team up with Marty on "Redneck Roadrunner", a high-speed song about a Trucker out of his mind and out of control.

“Appalachia Rust” follows on the heels of his recent, all-original LP, “Bluegrass Holy Land”, which achieved chart success immediately upon release, debuting at #1 on the APD Global Chart for All Genres/All Albums, where it remained for 21 days in a row. In addition, several of its songs scored in a big way as well, climbing to the top tiers of the bluegrass and gospel charts.

I’m not sure if I will ever be back to rural Jackson County Kentucky or ever see Marty Falle again. Marty is a bit of a recluse and invests most of his creative energy into writing and recording. Marty plays multiple instruments, is a classically trained vocalist, and a riveting Bluegrass and Country live performer, a veteran of many live performances. He has received invitations to play bluegrass events around the world and has a loyal following. Per Falle, “I miss playing live but as long as the songs are coming, I am going to keep writing. I have never had this kind of a creative surge before. So blessed. Life is good.” “Appalachia Rust” is a must listen. The prospects for a live version of “Appalachia Rust” at the Grand Old Opry would be even better.

About Marty Falle:

History and heritage naturally go hand in hand, and the desire to preserve the former is generally maintained by preserving the latter. Singer, songwriter and musician Marty Falle knows that all too well. His connection to the traditional music of Appalachia was spawned from spending much of his time after graduating from college living in Kentucky, the place where bluegrass was born. From his farm in Eastern Kentucky, he’s thoroughly absorbed the music, culture and influences of that storied region, and in the process, made them his own.

Falle’s producer, Grammy winner Jonathan Yudkin, sums it up succinctly. “Marty seeks stories, history, legends, and paths in creativity… His fresh sound comes from the fact that he is not trying to emulate bluegrass bands of the past or present. Instead, he is creating his songs out of his love of music, unfettered by the influence of other artists. That’s what I enjoy the most about working with him. His songs are always unpredictable and surprising…”

That, then, is the essence of an artist who’s not only impacted by history and heritage, but one who effectively moves those foundations forward as well. He’s an Appalachian original and a dedicated contributor to Americana music in general.
