Photos: Johnny Cash Night [February 26]

All photos in this post are by Dennis Stein.

A week ago today was yet another unforgetable night featuring some of the best musicians Portland has to offer. Following hot on the heels of the 48 Hour Music Fest, the WMPG-sponsored Johnny Cash Night (in celebration of his birthday), was a huge hit, beginning with the film Johnny Cash: The Man, His World, His Music, and continuing through the night with a succession of musicians paying tribute to his music.

Read on for photos and a full list of performers.

Thanks to all the performers who participated:
Wesley Hartley, Panda Bandits, Johnny Fountain, Jesse Pilgrim, Cursillistas, Eggbot, Kelly Nesbitt, Rebecca Minnick, Dave Gutter, Chris Teret, Justin Boss, Reuben + Caleb + Mike, Over A Cardboard Sea, Brzowski, Hanifa Washington, Matt Robbins + Pat Corrigan, Jonah Fertig, and Ceci Gilson, who DJ’d between acts! The night was topped off with a birthday cake for Johnny Cash, featuring a lovely photo of the Man In Black himself.
