Marty Haggard’s love for his Dad and his music inspired him to begin a new project which he titled A Tribute To Merle Haggard “My Dad”. He recorded the first album of this project with a 15 song CD of Hag classics. Marty then released a second Tribute to Merle Haggard “My Dad” Volume Two with 12 more of his Dad’s songs. Marty plans to continue the tribute to his Dad well into the future. As Marty’s song "Apple" proclaims,” The Apple never falls too far from its tree”.
