He gathered musicians at the famed Cash Cabin to create new backing tracks – with special guests, country star Marty Stuart, Average White band drummer Peter Abbot, and Cash’s touring bassist Dave Roe – who passed away last year after the album was finished.
Vince Gill and the Black Keys Dan Auerbach were among the guests on the project.
