Marcus Spencer Hummon (born December 28, 1960 in Washington, DC) is an American country music artist.

Early life

Hummon was born on December 28, 1960 in Washington, D.C.. He graduated from Williams College.[2]

Career

After several years of playing in various bands, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, where he was signed to a songwriting contract, and subsequently a record deal with Columbia Records, which released his debut album All in Good Time in 1995 and produced a No. 73 single on the Hot Country Songs charts in "God's Country." Hummon has also released several studio albums on his own label, Velvet Armadillo.

In 2006, his composition "Bless the Broken Road", co-written with Jeff Hanna and Bobby Boyd in 1994, won a Grammy Award for Best Country Song.[3] It was first recorded by Hanna’s Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, followed by Hummon, Melodie Crittenden, the Grammy-winning version by Rascal Flatts, and Selah in a duet with Melodie Crittenden.[4]

Hummon has also co-written songs for many country music artists, including Top 40 singles for Tim McGraw, Wynonna Judd, and Alabama,[5][6] as well as three Number One country hits: "Cowboy Take Me Away" by the Dixie Chicks, "Born to Fly" by Sara Evans, and the Rascal Flatts version of "Bless the Broken Road".
