“Years ago, I was performing my first concert for inmates,” Bosko reflects. “I knew I was singing for the women, but I wasn’t aware I’d also be performing for the men. Without a fitting song for the occasion, I went home and began writing ‘Cash.’
“I later finished it with Griffin House, who is truly a talented poet. Both of us share a love for Johnny Cash, and out of that spirit, this song was born,” she reflects. “Johnny was such an inspiring renegade, especially in the way he connected to those who felt forgotten.”
Written by Bosko with House and produced by Bosko with Tommy Sims, “Cash” captures the essence of the icon’s multifaceted persona:
Today’s release follows “Heart Burn” ft. Dwight Yoakam and “Higher Ground” ft. Vince Gill, both of which landed on Rolling Stone’s all-genre “Songs You Need To Know” upon their release.
Bosko recently performed at California’s Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles as direct support for Jelly Roll and joined him onstage for a collaboration on “Friends in Low Places” (watch HERE), while Detroit Free Press boasts of her set at Faster Horses earlier this month, “California singer-songwriter Annie Bosko turned in a barnstorming performance…bringing rock energy and an old-school country feel to a 40-minute set that included a romping ‘Boots On’ and midtempo ‘Neon Baby.’"
Following additional performances at Tortuga, Stagecoach and CMA Fest earlier this summer, Bosko has upcoming festival plays at Watershed tomorrow, August 3, and Country Thunder Florida on October 19.
