The Jones Family Singers Team Up With GRAMMY Award Winning Producer for Johnny Cash Cover

In advance of their Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration tour and the impending inauguration, The Jones Family Singers have created a smoldering and uplifting version of "All God's Children Ain't Free" from Johnny Cash's time-honored 1965 album Orange Blossom Special. Recorded at Level One Sound in Austin, TX for Adrian Quesada's 'Live at Level One' cover series, the rendition is as socially and politically poignant as ever.

"No matter how high and mighty you think you are, never forget the people beneath you" declares Bishop Fred Jones, Sr., the charismatic patriarch and leader of the multi-generational family band. "Everyone needs an opportunity right now, and this song is a necessary statement for us to make at this crucial time in our nation's history."

The tour will bring them to various spots on the east coast over the next week, including Hampton, VA, two nights in Philadelphia, PA, Hanover, NH and Portland, ME.
