I was so honored to have my song, Good Enough, chosen as the theme song for the Mama Said, Mama Said Show in 2024. It is a song about moms just trying to do their best, for better or worse.
Tune in to Episode 23 of This Podcast Will Kill You, hosted by Erin and Erin, two of the brightest young women you'll ever hear. They make disgusting topics not only palatable, but enjoyable! You'll be itching for more! They kindly used a song I wrote a few years ago, with my permission, of course. Thank you Erins for staying curious and sharing the love!!
The back story of this song, is that my favorite class at the University of Missouri (Go Tigers) was Parasitology, or the study of parasites. The stories of these critters' life cycles was fascinating to me. Fondly recalling those days in the lecture hall, I composed this song with the intent of it sounding like your basic break -up song, if you didn't know it was about a parasite and host.
Yes, I do have too much time on my hands.
Songs can heal hearts and minds. Playing primarily banjo or guitar, I generally play Roots, Americana and Folk music. Sometimes I play with friends, sometimes I go solo. I prefer to play tunes that I've written. I also write the lyrics. It keeps me up at night.

Marting’s songs seem to be written in a consistent voice — a well-travelled, hard-drinking woman who’s had her heart broken more than a few times, who gets addicted to Facebook validation in the song “Like Me” and can’t sit through yoga class in “Yoga Dropout.” 10.24.16
Susan played at our fundraiser this year and we broke our previous record. Her songs are original, fun and heartwarming.
"Sweet." "Clever." "She's a female John Prine." "Haven't heard a song like that since Arlo Guthrie." "Never heard such a sad song on a banjo." "So relevant." "She has such a clear voice, I sing along to every word"
