Following on from a sell-out Melbourne season, Australian country outlaw Henry Wagons is back with CASH: A JOURNEY THROUGH THE AMERICAN RECORDINGS, sharing the popular show with Meeniyan Town Hall this January.

No country music icon has the depth, enigma and songwriting weight of Johnny Cash.

Known as the “Man in Black”, Cash’s music has always embraced the existential void and stared down the darkness head-on. No period of his esteemed career did this more so than his infamous, late-career American Recordings albums recorded with creative guru Rick Rubin. Across the course of these six albums released between 1996 and 2006, Cash’s every syllable serves as both a show-down and an embrace of death itself.

In CASH: A JOURNEY THROUGH THE AMERICAN RECORDINGS, beloved brooding baritone HENRY WAGONS will lean into the deep mythology and sound of The American Recordings Albums. Featuring the favourites Solitary Man (Neil Diamond), Hung My Head (Sting), The Mercy Seat (Nick Cave), Hurt (Nine Inch Nails), One (U2) and more, Wagons and his band The Tennessee Studs will re-create the sonic depth, poise and ominous force of the original recordings, as if you were sitting with Cash and Rubin in the control room.

Don’t miss this moment in music history!
