The Johnny Cash Museum and 650 AM WSM will continue the legacy of Johnny Cash, 57 years after Cash’s distinct voice was heard over the radio airwaves as he made his first appearance on the Grand Ole Opry. The museum and 650 AM WSM have solidified an agreement for live endorsements for The Johnny Cash Museum to be heard on Sunday broadcasts of the Opry on 650 AM WSM, beginning Aug. 31.
“We are honored to help introduce our worldwide audience to the amazing Johnny Cash Museum,” says 650 AM WSM General Manager Tom English. “Our listeners will be excited about the museum just as they are about calling and emailing us every day to request their favorite Cash songs.”
“650 WSM and Johnny Cash have a long history together,” says Bill Miller, founder of The Johnny Cash Museum. “He was a regular member of the Grand Ole Opry through much of the 60’s; he first met June Carter backstage at the Opry years before they would marry, and 650 has never stopped playing Johnny’s records. I’m proud to be part of extending and carrying on the Cash tradition by partnering with this iconic station.”
