BOY NAMED SUEA horn band tribute to Johnny Cash & other country legends
By Cuchulain
Boy Named Sue is Oregon's finest horn band tribute to Johnny Cash and other country legends. Fronted by Cuchulain, a low-voiced songwriter with a wry wit, the band performs country favorites from the Man in Black himself, as well as Garth Brooks, Josh Turner, Dolly Parton, and Willie Nelson. Sure to be a crowd favorite, Cuchulain's band opens with a set of originals before bringing the house down with time-tested honky-tonkin classics. Here's their latest Tiny Desk video, imagine these horns on Ring of Fire.
More about Cuchulain:
Cuchulain is a low-voiced songwriter with a wry wit. Featured four years in a row as the NPR Music Tiny Desk Contest "Desk of the Day," the multi-instrumentalist released an album FEAT that was called "an as-yet-unpublished portion of the Great American Songbook." Cuchulain's deep baritone and clever lyrics have drawn comparisons to Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen, and Randy Newman. From the Kennedy Center to the Oregon Country Fair, from Club Passim to the Cobblestone in Dublin, Cuchulain's lyrics have brought laughs and tears to audiences across the US and beyond as he shared the stage with renowned folk acts including Ira Wolf, Jeffrey Lewis, Viv & Riley, Billy Keane, Upstate, Julianna Zachariou, and more. His Sing In The Shower single release tour took him to Europe in the summer of 2022, and his nationwide My Dog single release tour criss-crossed the US in summer 2023. His latest album Minute To Win It - a visual album of 20 songs in 20 minutes - peaked at 20k monthly listeners on Spotify and was also featured in the Portland Festival for Cinema, Animation, and Technology. His next album of love songs, Window Seat, comes out Valentine's Day 2025. More info on Cuchulain's website: www.cuchulainkelly.com
