The new landmark is in Henderson, Tennessee, where Cash lived for 35 years. The artist is buried there, in the Hendersonville Memorial Gardens.

On 26 February, a new Tennessee Music Pathways monument was unveiled to mark the 90th anniversary of Johnny Cash's birth

New landmark is located in Henderson, Tennessee. The entertainer was buried in this city, in the Hendersonville Memorial Gardens. Here Cash lived for 35 years, in a lakeside home on Codyll Drive. Friends, family, and city and state officials gathered on Main Street at HALO Realty, the original home of his music publishing company, House of Cash.

The Man in Black's son John Carter Cash, attended at the ceremony, commented:

Having lived in Hendersonville all my life, I am grateful and indebted to Tennessee for immortalising the former House of Cash building. In the early 1970s, this building housed my father's recording studio. He made hundreds of historic recordings here. I remember sitting on his lap and recording a song with him when I was no more than four years old. It later became the Johnny Cash Museum, which attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors to Sumner County. On behalf of the John R. Cash Revocable Trust and the rest of my family, we look forward to continuing to work with the state to create additional venues so that music lovers and history students can continue to learn about my father, Johnny.

Commissioner of the Department of development Tennessee Tourism's Mark Ezell added:

When the idea of starting Tennessee Music Pathways was born, it was artists like Johnny Cash who helped lay the groundwork for this statewide initiative. From Memphis, Nashville, Hendersonville, Bristol and elsewhere, Johnny Cash has helped shape Tennessee's rich musical history across the state, and we are so grateful to be celebrating him and his many contributions to music.
