LOVE POLICE PRESENT CASH: A JOURNEY THROUGH THE AMERICAN RECORDINGS with HENRY WAGONS AND THE TENNESSEE STUDS
Event description
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 audiences on the East Coast this
October.
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.
