International Cash Day Video Roundup

Video Roundup

It all started with four lads from London with a brash attitude and a bone to pick with the system... oh wait, that's what got us started on International Clash Day, a theme show based on a whim that became an annual event for KEXP DJs. As we thought about ongoing impact of The Clash and how their influence resonated over the future generation, we couldn't help but think of another seminal artist whose influence is perhaps even greater and broader, and who in his life was more punk than punk. Today, on what would have been his 83rd birthday, we celebrate the life and legacy of Johnny Cash as KEXP DJs play songs by The Man in Black himself, as well as covers by those who revered him and tunes by others directly inspired by his voice and spirit. Enjoy this brief playlist below and tune in to KEXP all day today!
