With Marty Wendell, you get the real deal.

Musically weaned on an old Philco radio, singer-songwriter Marty Wendell grew up whetting an appetite for rockabilly, folk, country, pop, blues and gospel. With a music career spanning the six decades since, his records and shows cover an eclectic mix of influences.

“It’s almost scary how powerful, clean and clear Marty Wendell’s vocals are compared with my idols.” — Don Wilcock, Nippertown

In his music career spanning over 60 years, Marty has shared the stage with artists like Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, The Statler Brothers, The Carter Family, Arlo Guthrie, John Anderson, William Lee Golden, Deborah Allen, T. Graham Brown, The Hager Twins, Sonny James, Bandana, TG Sheppard, Lacy J. Dalton, Faron Young, Connie Smith, Hank Thompson, The Platters, Shirley Alston Reeves and Michael Twitty.

“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

Marty’s shows are engaging and just plain fun for audiences of all ages—and Marty hopes you’ll join him for one.

Accomplished physicist Sir Claud Amory has constructed a workable formula for one of the deadliest weapons imaginable: the atom bomb. After the formula is mysteriously stolen and Sir Claud is callously murdered, Hercule Poirot arrives to solve the mystery with the help of Captain Hastings and Inspector Japp.

A superbly crafted whodunit with endless red herrings, subplots of infamous spies and an astonishingly prophetic storyline about weapons created through “bombarding the atom,” Black Coffee is one of Christie’s most gripping country-house murder mysteries.
