The Cash Band is a team of highly trained professional musicians with many years of experience. They recreate the authentic sound of The Tennessee Three and Johnny Cash’s later years, with a bit of The Highwaymen thrown in.
Providing the energetic rhythm for Harold Ford and Laura Lucy, you would think this group of musicians emerged from
the hills of Tennessee.
“the music demands that you get on your feet and move a bit…this is Carter Family ambiance at its finest .”
