Finding Your Voice
There’s something almost otherworldly about standing in a room, opening your mouth, and letting a melody spill out. Singing. Just the thought of it can send shivers down your spine, right? Or maybe make your palms sweat a little. It’s not just about hitting the right notes—it’s about something deeper, something that connects us to the core of who we are.

One of the strangest things I’ve ever heard someone say came from Johnny Cash. In a 1996 interview to promote Unchained, his second album for producer Rick Rubin, Johnny talked about the renewed interest he was receiving from audiences following the first Cash/Rubin collaboration, 1994’s American Recordings, which featured just Johnny and his guitar. Cash discussed the long process leading to the solo format of that first album. The months of trial and error mostly consisted of Johnny and Rick sitting at Rubin’s Los Angeles home, with the recording equipment set up and running down a list of 200 songs that Johnny had in his head and which he had always wanted to record. According to Cash, after that process and the decision to keep the album bare, came the matter of working on Cash's guitar playing and making it sound good for recording since, as he put it, “I can’t play guitar.”
