Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash are an Americana/alternative country band led by singer Mark Stuart who are best known for their covers of Johnny Cash songs.

The band formed in San Diego, California in 1995. They received permission to use Cash's name by Cash himself and were then personally invited to record songs for their first CD Walk Alone at Cash's home in Hendersonville, Tennessee.

gollark: Do you want to know why the chips thing is a thing?
gollark: We have <#457999277311131649> already.
gollark: Anyway, it's impractical to just not put any identifying information on the internet, and in any case blaming people you target for having it is victim-blaming and thus bees, and correlating public information to identify them still allows for evilness, and you should ask before stalking people or at the *very least* agree to stop stalking them if they ask you to.
gollark: I expect SOME of them like bad movies.
gollark: Yes. There are at least 8 people who exist.
