Beginning in 1949 Martin was lead vocalist for Bill Monroe's "Blue Grass Boys". Martin's high voice mixed with Monroe's tenor came to be known as the "high lonesome" sound. Martin had a famously high-strung and exuberant personality, and a dangerously unpredictable but highly entertaining stage presence. His instrumentals featured ultra-crisp playing by a series of banjo players, and powered by Martin's guitar runs, set a standard for bluegrass instrumentals that was highly influential. In 1995, Martin was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Honor. A documentary on his life, King of Bluegrass: The Life and Times of Jimmy Martin, was released in 2003. Martin is also featured in the documentary film High Lonesome.
