[TRIBUTE] Johnny Cash fans still have some original, new music to look forward to from the musician who passed away 15 years ago. A handful of notable country singers including Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, and Brad Paisley have finished work on an album titled Johnny Cash: Forever Words, which features a collection of Cash’s poems, letters and other unpublished writings reinterpreted and presented by these artists, who were no doubt heavily influenced by the Man in Black. That comes out April 6, but in the meantime, a bunch of highly talented local artists will reinterpret Cash’s well known hits and deeper cuts for the annual Johny Cash Birthday Bash, this Friday, February 23 at the Sportsmen’s Tavern. The show features The CPX, Ten Cent Howl, and Uncle Ben’s Remedy, who will play Cash cuts all night long in celebration of the country music star’s birthday, this Friday, February 23 at the Sportsmen’s Tavern
