It’s once again time for two handfuls of bands to celebrate the music of Johnny Cash. The 7th annual Cash Bash will be held at Puckett’s Farm Equipment on April 9 and 10.

As is the custom, each band will play a brief set highlighted by performing two Cash covers mixed in — everything from the well known to the more obscure tunes usually show up. And don’t be surprised if a bunch of people hop up on stage to help out on “Ring of Fire,” either.

Friday night features The Truckstop Preachers, Jem Crossland & the Hypertonics, The Defilers, South 85 and The Go-Devils. Saturday night will have John Howie Jr & the Rosewood Bluff, The Straight-8’s, The Bo-Stevens, Sean K Preston and The Tremors.
