John Carter Cash entered the world on March 3, 1970, at the height of his parents' fame. Johnny Cash was already a cultural icon, and June Carter Cash was a celebrated member of the legendary Carter Family. Their marriage joined two powerful traditions-one rooted in the roughedged storytelling of country music, the other in the foundational harmonies of American folk. John grew up surrounded by music, rehearsal halls, tour buses, and an ever-present creative energy. His early childhood photos, including one that appeared on the sleeve of Look at Them Beans, captured a boy whose earliest memories were intertwined with the hum of guitars and the cadence of songwriting. His family was large and musical. From his father's first marriage came four older half-sisters-Rosanne, Kathy, Cindy, and Tara-each with her own relationship to the stage. His mother had two older daughters, Carlene Carter and Rosie Nix, who would both pursue music as well. John was the youngest, yet he was also the symbolic link between two dynasties.
