The KCP Presents Performing Arts Series is thrilled to welcome the iconic Rosanne Cash back to St. Johnsbury Academy’s Fuller Hall, on March 20th, at 7:00. Dubbed “one of the most ambitious and literary songwriters of her generation,” by Rolling Stone, Cash has been busting boundaries and jumping genres since the 1970s.

One of the country’s pre-eminent singer-songwriters, Rosanne Cash has released 15 albums of extraordinary songs that have earned four Grammy Awards and 12 additional nominations, as well as 21 Top 40 hits, including 11 chart-topping singles. Her latest release “She Remembers Everything” is a poetic, lush, and soulful collection of songs that reckon with a flawed and intricate world.

Born to country legend Johnny Cash, Rosanne joined her father’s tour as a wardrobe assistant and background singer in 1973. After stints in London and Nashville (and a year studying method acting in California), she launched her solo career in 1978. Though often classified as country, her music draws from folk, pop, rock, blues, and Americana. In the 1980s, she had a string of genre-crossing singles, most notably her 1981 breakthrough hit “Seven Year Ache,” which topped the country charts and reached the Top 30 on the pop charts.

Cash is also the author of four books including the best-selling memoir “Composed,” which the Chicago Tribune called “one of the best accounts of an American life you’ll likely ever read.” Her essays have appeared in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Atlantic, The Oxford American, and more.

In addition to touring, Cash has partnered in programming with Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Minnesota Orchestra, and the Library of Congress. Cash was awarded the SAG/AFTRA Lifetime Achievement Award for Sound Recordings in 2012 and the 2014 Smithsonian Ingenuity Award in the Performing Arts. She was a Carnegie Hall Perspectives artist in 2015-16 and was a 2015 Artist-In-Residence at the Country Music HOF and Museum. She is NYU Steinhardt’s first Americana Artist-in-Residence.

Cash is one of only a handful of women to be elected to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2017-18, she was a resident artistic director at SFJAZZ and will continue her partnership in 2022. In 2018, Cash was awarded the “Spirit of Americana” Free Speech Award by the AMA and received an honorary doctorate from Berklee. In 2021, Cash was the first female composer to receive the MacDowell Medal, awarded since 1960 to an artist who has made an outstanding contribution to American culture.

Bringing big city talent to Vermont’s small towns, the KCP Presents Performing Arts Series has scheduled 11 professional touring acts through spring of 2026, including dance, circus, comedy, and music from around the world.
