Event

“Some people are impressionists. These guys leave an impression”.  Says Bill
Miller, owner of Johnny Cash.com about Cash’d Out, a San Diego based
band that channels Johnny Cash in about as close a manner to the real thing
as it gets.  
 
After thirteen years, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles on the road and
winning over as many fans, fans who still continually tell the group how
grateful they are that Cash’d Out so righteously carries the torch of the Johnny
Cash Show.
 
Besides music critics anointing Cash’d Out as "the next best thing to Johnny
Cash”, their highlights have been many:
W.S. Holland, Johnny Cash’s longtime drummer, has sat in with Cash’d Out;
 front man, Douglas Benson, has played Johnny’s cherry sunburst Guild guitar
(courtesy of Mr. Miller);  “Cindy Cash came to a show and was moved to give
me a glass locket that was her father’s,” explains Benson;  Longtime Johnny
Cash manager Lou Robin has also been to several Cash’d Out shows and
claimed that if he closed his eyes it was as if “going back in time.”;  And most
recently, an unforgettable evening performing the music of Johnny Cash with
the San Diego Symphony as a special event for their Summer Pops Series.
 
The band’s live shows respectfully reference the late, great Man in Black's
Sun Records and early Columbia era sound, combined with the energy of the
classic multi-platinum live recordings from Folsom Prison and San Quentin.
The group's genuine love (and authentic recreation) of Johnny Cash’s music
and its universal appeal fans of all ages and of virtually all musical genres
makes each Cash’d Out show a must-see event.
 
Or as Bill Miller says, “Some people are impressionists. These guys leave an
impression.”
