The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has opened its newest exhibit, putting the spotlight on Rosanne Cash, a second-generation star who’s fleshed out her own identity. (...) The exhibit depicts the dialogue she engaged in with her dad, the songs, letters and tokens they exchanged back and forth. At the same time, it shows how Rosanne continually expanded her world intellectually, and moved from writing songs to short stories, essays and memoir. In her remarks, she spoke of how sifting through the mementos that she’d long stockpiled, now thoughtfully framed by museum curators, gave her new perspective on her lifelong restlessness: “So many of those attempts to break the binds, successful or not, are behind glass now, and in the vaults here.” The exhibit’s title is “Rosanne Cash: Time Is a Mirror,” and it will remain open until March 2026.

Rosanne Cash has a new The Essential Collection available today, Jan. 10, commemorating her spot in music history and her role in the development of Americana music. This definitive 40-song set spans Cash’s music catalog from 1979 up through 2021, highlighting her 14 studio albums and 10 No. 1 hits, as well as collaborations with John Leventhal, duets with Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello and Jeff Tweedy of Wilco.This release is meant to complement a new exhibit, Rosanne Cash: Time Is a Mirror, which is running now through March 2026 at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tenn. Per its official description, the exhibit will explore Cash’s more than 40-year journey as an artist, songwriter and storyteller, and how she has embodied both tradition and innovation across her musical career.

Her career stretches back to more than four decades ago with her first album in 1979. It was the next record, Seven Year Ache, that led to her first No. 1 first with the title track. Over the next decade, Rosanne Cash lit up the country charts with a string of No.1’s like “Blue Moon with Heartache,” Tennessee Flat Top Box,” “Runaway Train,” and others.

With her distinctive vocal style, talent for songwriting, and extensive catalogue blending country, country rock, pop, and Americana, the four-time GRAMMY winner Rosanne Cash has cemented her own place in music history. To celebrate her many contributions, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has opened a new exhibit: Rosanne Cash: Time Is A Mirror.

Rosanne Cash's journey from curiosity-driven teenage rock fandom to a Grammy and Americana Music Association award-winning and 11-time Country Music Association award-nominated musician is highlighted via the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's newest exhibition, "Rosanne Cash: Time Is a Mirror." It runs through March 2026 and is included with museum admission.

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has published a new book, In-Law Country: How Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash and Their Circle Fashioned a New Kind of Country Music, 1968-1985, by Geoffrey Himes. The book shines a light on a musical movement of outsiders who became influential insiders in the genre. Blending biography and musical analysis, Himes explores how a group of artists, musicians and producers helped change the sounds and stories of country, melding traditional stylings with fresh innovations and perspectives. It attempts to define the previously unnamed movement by delving into the lives and seminal works of Harris, Cash, Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell, Gram Parsons, Ricky Skaggs, Clarence White, Townes Van Zandt and others.
