Mighty Cash Cats Nominated In “Best Country/Americana Group” Category For The 2012 Ventura County Music Awards – Vote Now
“Michael
J Smith leads the performance playing a black acoustic guitar. It is
impossible not to be drawn to the bass texture of his voice — and his
physical and aural resemblance to Johnny Cash is practically eerie. The
Mighty Cash Cats are purely live entertainment for a live audience.
They know how to talk to the crowd and manuver their instruments and
voice to create a body of sound for each song, no matter the genre or
mood. They closed with Cash’s Orange Blossom Special to raucous
applause.” MUSIC CONNECTION MAGAZINE
