9/19/2007 Stephen L. Betts On Friday, Oct. 5, Marty Stuart's American Odyssey will premiere on XM Radio. Marty will expose fans to a broad range of American music - including traditional country, blues, rockabilly, bluegrass, gospel and rock. Each hour-long episode will focus on a different part of the country and bring the musical sounds and stories of that region to life through informal interviews with local musicians, stories, guests and a regular cast of studio and tour musicians. "'American Odyssey' will be an amazing adventure inside the musical walls of our cities. It's theater and radio has always been great theater to me; I knew XM was where it belonged," says Marty. "This will be a journey through America with a big smile." New episodes of Marty Stuart's American Odyssey, which airs Fridays at 8 a.m. (ET) on XM's classic country channel "America" (XM 10), will also be available all day every Friday on "XMX" (XM 2), a recently launched channel providing fans with XM's most popular and critically-acclaimed original music shows all in one place.
