Every second Saturday of the month through the summer, Wildwood hosts a phenomenal evening of song and stories with the writers who made them famous. It’s like being at the Bluebird in Nashville, but sitting by the lakeshore with stars above you and a bonfire nearby. We call it NEWBIRD ON THE WATER!

Marshall Altmann began his music career in the mid-90’s fronting the West Coast rock band Farmer, which was subsequently signed to Aware Records. After several US tours, Marshall found himself drawn more to developing and recording new artists rather than pursuing his own recording career. After a series of recordings with Citizen Cope (resulting in Citizen Cope’s signing on to Capitol Records), Marshall transitioned into the world of A&R – first at Capitol Records then Hollywood Records and finally Columbia Records, where his last two projects as an A & R person were Katy Perry and OneRepublic. Despite his successes inside the label system, the desire for unbridled creativity was too great and in 2005, he left Columbia Records and embarked on a full-time career as a writer/producer.
in mid-2010, Marshall, his wife Lela, and their children Alex & Stella, relocated from Los Angeles, CA to Nashville, TN, where he is now proudly based and working out of his studio, The Galt Line in Berry Hill. 2013 & 2014 were breakout years for Marshall having produced 3 #1 singles collectively for Frankie Ballard (“Helluva Life” and “Sunshine & Whiskey”) and Eric Paslay (“Friday Night”) and producing Will Hoge’s critically acclaimed album Small Town Dreams. In 2015 Marshall returned to the studio with Frankie and Eric to record their follow up albums and also saw a 4th song go #1 at Country Radio with Frankie Ballard’s “Young & Crazy”. These successes come on the heels of producing Amy Grant’s critically acclaimed album, How Mercy Looks From Here, which was her first album in twelve years.
