Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash & Maxx Cabello Jr.

12pm – 3pm: Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash “On Tour” – Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash is an Americana and alt-country band formed in the late 1990s by singer-songwriter Mark Stuart. The group pays homage to classic outlaw country influences, blending the raw grit of Johnny Cash with modern storytelling and rock energy. Their sound evokes the spirit of the American Southwest, with lyrics steeped in tales of heartbreak, redemption, and life on the road. The band gained notable recognition when they received official permission from Johnny Cash himself to use his name, a rare and meaningful endorsement that set them apart early in their career.
Over the years, Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash has built a loyal following through relentless touring and heartfelt performances. They’ve shared the stage with legends like Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson, and their albums—such as Distance Between and Mile Markers—have been praised for their authenticity and emotional depth. Stuart’s gravelly vocals and evocative songwriting remain the band’s core, capturing the rough-and-tumble essence of outlaw country while carving a distinct and personal path in today’s Americana landscape.
4pm – 7pm: Maxx Cabello Jr. – The American music flame will never go out as long as artists such as Maxx Cabello Jr. take the torch and keep it burning. This amazing guitarist, soulful vocalist, and prolific songwriter, hails from the streets of the San Francisco Bay area where he is turning heads and bending the ears of the most jaded veteran musicians and music aficionados. Straight out of the South Bay, this quiet-spoken, polite college student turns into a powerful and captivating artist when he begins to play the guitar. We expect his star to be on the rise in the musical sky before long.
