Biography
Tommy Cash (April 5, 1940 – September 13, 2024) was an American country musician. His elder brother was Johnny Cash.
Background and career
Cash was born in Dyess, Arkansas, on April 5, 1940, the youngest of four sons and three daughters of Ray and Carrie (née Rivers) Cash. He formed his first band in high school. After high-school graduation, he enlisted in the United States Army, and worked as a disc jockey for the Armed Forces Radio network.
After leaving the Army, Cash played with Hank Williams Jr., and eventually gained a record deal from Musicor Records in 1965. A year later, he joined United Artists Records and released "The Sounds of Goodbye", which peaked at number 41 on the Billboard country chart.
In late 1969, while on Epic Records, he released "Six White Horses
