Timeline

1900

Asa F. Martin (June 25, 1900 – August 15, 1979) was an American old-time musician, singer, and guitarist, who made many recordings during the 1920s and 1930s and was closely associated with renowned fiddle player Doc Roberts, for whom he played rhythm guitar.

In turn, Roberts frequently played mandolin on Martin's recordings; Roberts' son James also sang duets with Martin under the name Doc Roberts Trio.

Martin was born in Winchester, Kentucky, into a music-loving family.

His mother, who was a piano teacher, also played the guitar, and his father played the fiddle.

Because of low finances, Martin decided to drop out of medical school and try his hand at a career in music.

1920

In the early 1920s, he played in several dance bands, and in the meantime, he worked in a cinema as a background musician for silent movies.

With the advent of talking pictures, he had to find another job.

Martin met fiddler Doc Roberts at a fiddler's convention in Winchester.

They began performing together, and soon, Martin and Roberts went to Richmond, Indiana, for a recording session.

In addition to being a recording star, Martin performed on radio stations in Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio.

1935

In 1935, he hired an aspiring young banjo player, David Akeman.

Martin gave Akeman the moniker "String Beans" during an onstage presentation when he could not remember the banjo player's name.

The name eventually became "Stringbean".

Martin's pseudonym on the Champion label was Jesse Coats.

1940

Martin retired from music in the 1940s and went to work at a steel plant in Ohio.

1950
