The Cold Hard Cash Show is an original and innovative tribute to the music of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three! Fronted by guitarist and singer Merle Travis Peterson, Cold Hard Cash brings to life classic Cash songs performed with the energy of the Live at Folsom and San Quentin albums with a sound so accurate you'd think you're listening to The Man in Black himself.

The band formed in 2005 and in addition to Merle Travis Peterson fronting the band on vocals and guitar, the line-up includes long time member Fel Torres on drums and John Sporman on double bass. Since the formation, they have performed on hundreds of stages often sharing them with a diverse variety of artists such as Charlie Daniels, Eddie Money, Eli Young Band, Los Lobos, Dale Watson and countless others as well as performing at several high profile private functions with guests such as Katy Perry, John Oates, Justin Timberlake, John Mayer and have at times performed with a few of them!


In 2008 the band made their National Television debut when they performed on The Late Show with David Letterman, gaining a solid world-wide fan base and landing them on stages at several nationally known festivals such as Memphis in May Festival (Memphis,TN), Sturgis Motorcycle Rally (Sturgis,SD), Lonestar Rally (Galveston,TX).

The band continues to tour across the country non-stop spreading the great word and music of The Man in Black, Johnny Cash. Say what you will about Tribute Bands, The Cold Hard Cash Show is an excellent band, excellent show, excellent experience and hands down the best Johnny Cash Tribute around.
