Jack Viljoen is a pretty cool guy - but is he as cool as Johnny Cash?

The South African-born singer-songwriter, now based in the Gladstone region, shares his love of Cash and other music legends in his new song As Cool as Johnny Cash.

A song by Jack Viljoen, available for live streaming on spotify, iTunes and other streaming platforms

The song debuted in April, at 29 on the Australian airplay country music chart.

There’s now a follow-up track too: My Friend The Fidler.
