The Grand Ole Opry will honor and celebrate the life and legacy of one of music’s most influential artists, Johnny Cash on the 20th anniversary of his passing, Tuesday, September 12. The “Opry Honors Johnny Cash” will feature performances by some of the artists who have been influenced by “The Man In Black,” including Rodney Crowell, The Gatlin Brothers, Chris Janson, Jamey Johnson, The War and Treaty, and William Beckman, as well as the Tennessee Four’s Opry debut. The Tennessee Four is comprised of Cash’s oldest grandson, Thomas Gabriel, on vocals and musicians who played with Cash: Paul Leim (drums), Kerry Marx (guitar), Dave Roe (bass).
