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. 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.
Under the genius curative lens of producer and creative guru Rick Rubin, Cash reimagined songs by artists you would least expect, from Nine Inch Nails to Sting, Nick Cave to Neil Diamond. The recordings are revealingly raw, acoustic, beautifully stripped bare, leaving only the emotionally quick behind. The results of these odd couplings have a synergy unmatched, stretching the boundaries of country music as we know it.
In this brand-new show, 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. 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.
Henry Wagons is a renowned singer-songwriter, radio presenter and entertainment megamind. Henry is renowned for his sonorous voice in his popular live shows, which he regularly takes to stages across the globe.
He has released a swathe of critically acclaimed and awarded albums with band Wagons as well as solo. He is known as one of the instigators of the modern era of alt-country music in Australia.
