Long time country music star Marty Stuart will complete the first season of XM Radio’s Marty Stuart’s American Odyssey this summer with a show featuring music in Las Vegas, Nevada.

XM Radio airs Stuart’s hour-long show every Friday morning at 8 on America Channel 10 with a new show every other week. The show also broadcasts all day on XMX Channel 2. The country music program began last October with city-specific programming intended to emphasize the different styles of music in the United States.

"Creating American Odyssey has been one of the greatest experiences of my life," said Stuart. "The research, the writing, the character development, the camaraderie and the music have enlightened and enriched me in ways that are beyond belief."

Stuart has six shows remaining this summer. Shows highlighting Tulsa, Bakersfield, and Portland are still to come, in addition to the season finale featuring Las Vegas.
