The Ohio University Performing Arts and Concert series will present legendary singer-songwriter Rosanne Cash on Jan. 31 at Templeton-Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium.

Cash has been touring behind her recent release, The River and the Thread. The three-time Grammy Award-winning album was produced by her collaborator, musical director, guitarist and husband, John Leventhal, who is also on the tour.

Cash, who won her first Grammy in 1985, has recorded 15 albums, including Seven Year Ache (1981), King’s Record Shop (1987) and more recently, Black Cadillac (2006) and The List (2009). She has charted 21 Top 40 country singles, including 11 number ones.

Her other accomplishments include receiving the Smithsonian’s American Ingenuity Award in 2014, which recognizes 10 innovative people in the arts and sciences. She has also published four books, including her 2010 memoir, Composed, described by The Chicago Tribune as “one of the best accounts of an American life you will likely ever read.”
