Roseanne Cash
Newly discovered and unpublished poems and lyrics written by Johnny Cash are transformed into ‘Johnny Cash: Forever Words’, a collaborative album featuring new music by Rosanne Cash, Alison Krauss & Union Station, Kris Kristofferson & Willie Nelson, Brad Paisley, John Mellencamp, Elvis Costello, The Jayhawks and more.
Along with John Leventhal at the SummerTyne Americana Festival, Rosanne Cash demonstrated just how important the aural traditions inherent in folk and roots music still are to modern song writing. She can certainly count herself part of that ongoing continuum of music with its roots planted firmly in the soil of the American South.
