Marti Jones, born in Uniontown, Ohio, is an American singer who performed with her sisters in a folk music group and graduated from Kent State University in 1979. Producer Liam Sternberg suggested she join Akron band Color Me Gone as their lead singer, leading to the recording of one EP for A&M Records in 1982. Jones' first solo album, Unsophisticated Time, was released in 1985 on A&M Records, produced by Don Dixon. She recorded two more albums for A&M Records – Match Game (1986) and Used Guitars (1988). In 1990, Jones moved to RCA Records to record Any Kind of Lie. After being dropped by RCA, she released Live at Spirit Square in 1996 on Sugar Hill Records, a live recording documenting the Any Kind of Lie tour. She later focused on painting but returned to music with You're Not the Bossa Me in 2014.
