Cash: A Journey through the American Recordings with Henry Wagons

melbourne, Victoria, AU

Available Dates

188 Collins Street

Approximate Running Times: Doors - 7:00pm Start - 7:30pm Finish - 9:30pm 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 genius Rick Rubin and released between 1996 and 2006. In CASH: A JOURNEY THROUGH THE AMERICAN RECORDINGS, Australian outlaw country founding-figure and brooding baritone Henry Wagons will lean into the deep mythology and sound of The American Recordings Albums with his band The Tennessee Studs, re-creating the sonic depth, poise and ominous force of the original recordings, as if you were sitting with Cash and Rubin in the control room. Mystic, music, memories and magic this September at The Athenaeum.
