Biography | Mickey Cash’s tambourine flutters down in a shake, just above her hip. She raises her other hand to the microphone and sings. “On the backwoods from the bottom of the south, there’s a place called Pleasant Grove. There’s a young man there who never did grow up. Some say he’s 100 years old.” There’s something about her deep, soulful voice, the strong, sexy jawline and pensively set eyes that hint to bluegrass and country fans where her family history lies. Cousin to The Man in Black, Johnny Cash, and daughter to The Osbourne Brother’s guitarist Gordon Cash, Mickey sings the same way she lives her life: with everything she’s got. Now Mickey’s working on a new album. She’s traveling America’s east coast with her song and spirit. Her music – a blend of Americana, country and rock n’ roll - tells the story of a tough life, dreams loved and lost, and making big decisions. Mickey grew up in a swampy, small town near Richmond, Virginia. After graduating from New Kent High School, she married her sweetheart, traveling as far as California for her husband’s job. Fate would eventually lead Mickey and music manager/vocal coach Leonard Reed (producer for Marvin Gaye and inventor of the Shim Sham Shimmy dance) to the same hotel poolside in Los Angeles, where Mickey sang. Reed asked the young songstress if he could put her to work, and so her story with fame began. She was reaching new heights quickly and raising her girls Rachel and Samantha. But times were still hard, and so when her husband said, it’s the music or me, Mickey chose her family. She became an interior designer and started her own business, only to end up in divorce years later. A single mom, she sent one child to college, and settled down with the other on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Diagnosed with blood cancer soon after, Mickey fought for her life with the help of her mother Dorothy, who introduced the singer to organic foods and healthy eating. Mickey recovered, looking and feeling better than ever. “I know my future doesn’t have to be my history,” said Mickey, who sees herself as a believer in God, a mother, a musician, and a survivor. |
