Everybody Sucks - Marty Dodson Writes from the Heart

Marty Dodson Writes from the Heart

08/22/23 • 34 min

Everybody Sucks

Marty Dodson spent years as a youth minister, before making the daring choice to switch careers and chase the songwriting dream. Ten #1 songs and more than 150 cuts later, Marty has become one of the most accomplished writers in Nashville with notable hit singles such as "Fire It Up” by Joe Cocker, “Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven” by Kenny Chesney, “Must Be Doin’ Somethin’ Right” & “Let Me Down Easy” by Billy Currington. His songs have been recorded by numerous artists including: Blake Shelton, George Strait, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, The Plain White T’s, The Oak Ridge Boys, Don Williams, Johnny Reid, Billy Ray Cyrus and Big & Rich.

Marty’s self-professed “greatest achievement” in his songwriting career to date was knocking artist Psy (“Gangnam Style”) out of the #1 spot in South Korea and winning “Song of the Year” honors for South Korea and all of Asia with his song “Bounce” recorded by Cho Yong Pil. Marty currently resides in Nashville TN with his wife Candy and is the owner and writer for Sail Away Songs.


Feature track: ‘Wine We Didn’t Drink’ (DEMO) – written by Marty Dodson, Jason Duke, Daniel Ross and Chris Bandi
