MARTY SHIRLEY

2024 PBSF NATIONAL SONGWRITING COMPETITION WINNER: (TIE) FIRST PLACE, COUNTRY

Growing up in the shadows of the Appalachian Mountains, the Belton, SC native was heavily influenced by Traditional Country Music, Piedmont Blues, Southern Rock, and Roots Music. He was inspired by a multitude of artists and songwriters ranging from blues musician Jimmy Reed to country-rocker Dwight Yoakam, along with songwriters Billy Joe Shaver, Dean Dillon, and Kris Kristofferson.
