It’s no surprise that the only child of two of music’s most iconic and beloved musicians would become so revered in the industry himself.

Grammy-winning producer John Carter Cash has just released his long-awaited full-length album Pineapple John. An exploration of love, loss, redemption, and self-discovery, it’s filled with contemporary folk and timeless storytelling. And just as the fruit itself; this Pineapple too, is good for your heart and soul. 

The album features performances from some of country music's most talented artists such as Marty Stuart, Clare Bowen, and Brandon Robert Young. Cash's daughter A.B. Cash also joins her father on background vocals, as well as his nephew Thomas Gabriel, each artist adding their unique touch to these sweet tracks.

Cash has produced hundreds of recordings for dozens of other artists within the past 25 years, a diverse roster that includes Loretta Lynn, Elvis Costello, Jamey Johnson, Chris Cornell, George Jones, Jewel, Mavis Staples, Brooks & Dunn, Sheryl Crow, Kris Kristofferson, Norman and Nancy Blake, Marty Stuart, Carrie Underwood, Tanya Tucker, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, Rosanne Cash, John Cowan, Vince Gill, Rodney Crowell, Carlene Carter, Reba McEntire, and John Prine. A two-time Grammy Award winner, Cash has also contributed to an additional six Grammy-winning projects as a producer, writer, or collaborator—underscoring his long-standing impact on American music.
