Fresh off his run on America’s Got Talent, Marty Brown has recorded a new single, “Whatever Makes You Smile.” Brown wrote the song as a Valentine’s Day present for his wife Shellie, singing “Like the tin man, the lion, and the scarecrow, I’ll follow you down life’s Golden Road.” You might remember her from America’s Got Talent because she surprised Brown by arranging his appearance on the show.
Although Marty Brown has made some CD’s of newer music available in the last few years, it is great to see his new music being sold by mainstream sellers like iTunes and Amazon. I just bought a copy of the song and cannot wait for more. Check out “Whatever Makes You Smile.” [June 2014 Update: This post previously featured an acoustic version of the song that is no longer available on YouTube. Below is the official video for “Whatever Makes You Smile.”]
Brown remains active after his America’s Got Talent appearances. This week, he will be in Nashville to tape a TV episode of Words And Music for the Nashville Songwriters Association. Check out other upcoming performances on his brand new web page. Finally, you may get a free download his song “Love Signs,” which appeared on his independently released 17 Love Songs, at the CMT website.

One thing that came across on “America’s Got Talent,” besides his great singing voice, is that today Marty Brown is a pretty decent guy. I was impressed how he handled himself in response to what were a couple of overly harsh comments by one or two of the judges. Brown handled himself very well and remained respectful. I think the audience connected with that. As anyone who regularly reads this blog knows, his music has meant a lot to me too. Thanks for the comment Belinda!
Marty, I love your latest single, “Whatever Makes You Smile.” You are one terrific songwriter with an awesome voice. Keep the songs coming!!!
Yeah, it is great that he continues to write great songs, and I too look forward to more. Thanks for the comment!
