CashBack: A Salute to Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash
2025-11-20 18:00 - 22:00 (America/Chicago) | Harken Hall, 514 Madison Station Blvd, Madison, TN, 37115, United States
Harken Hall is proud to announce CashBack: A Salute to Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash November 20.
Madison has deep roots in the Cash family story — from Johnny and June’s longtime home on Old Hickory Lake to Johnny’s restoration of the historic Amqui Station that sits next door to Harken Hall. On November 20, those ties come full circle with CashBack, the acclaimed tribute band bringing the music of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash back to Madison.
Led by Leif Bondarenko, CashBack delivers the grit, soul, and spirit of the Man in Black with uncanny authenticity. From “Folsom Prison Blues” to “Ring of Fire,” the band covers decades of classics with roaring guitars, driving rhythm, and heartfelt duets. Guest vocalist Cheyloe Martin channels June’s fire and warmth, making this tribute as much a celebration of their partnership as of Johnny’s legendary career.
This isn’t an imitation — it’s a living, breathing salute to the music that shaped American culture and left its mark in Madison.
Seating is general admission, and tickets are $30, $50 and $60. Complimentary parking is available both onsite and at nearby lots. Food and beverages will be available for purchase throughout the evening.
Harken Hall is located at 514 Madison Station Blvd, Madison, TN 37115. The doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the show starts at 7:00 p.m. Tickets can be purchased on the Harken Hall website https://www.harkenhall.com/. For more information call (615) 326-1369.

Pitney Meyer with special guest The French Family Band
2026-02-05 19:30 - 23:30 | Harken Hall, 514 Madison Station Blvd, Madison, TN, 37115, United States
Experience the heartfelt songwriting and brother-tight harmonies of Pitney Meyer, the collaborative bluegrass project of Mo Pitney and John Meyer. With special guest The French Family Band, this is an evening of roots music, acoustic mastery, and timeless storytelling.

Rooted in friendship and the shared language of traditional bluegrass music, Pitney Meyer brings a rare kind of harmony—the kind that comes from two voices and two hearts that have spent years shaping songs together. The duo’s music is steeped in authenticity, musical detail, and an emotional depth that’s impossible to fake.
Their debut album, Cherokee Pioneer (2025), was recorded completely analog inside an 1837 hand-hewn log cabin once owned by Johnny Cash—the Storytellers Hideaway Farm in Bon Aqua. Over just three days, surrounded by wood, wire, and stories soaked into the walls, Pitney Meyer captured what makes bluegrass timeless: real voices, real instruments, and real life poured straight to tape. With contributions from standout musicians including mandolinist Nate Burie, fiddlers Ivy Phillips and Jenee Fleenor (five-time CMA Musician of the Year), the album is a testament to musical craftsmanship at its most soulful.
Joining them for this special performance is The French Family Band, bringing their signature blend of country roots, family harmonies, and pure down-home charm.
Together, it’s an evening of storytelling, picking, heart, and tradition—the kind of show you remember long after the last note fades.
