“One of the most ambitious and literary songwriters of her generation” – Rolling Stone

Renowned singer-songwriter Rosanne Cash will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of her landmark album The Wheel with an expanded, remastered deluxe edition, out November 17. With the masters now owned by Rosanne, this is the first-ever vinyl release for The Wheel.

In November, Rosanne and guitarist/producer/husband John Leventhal will be revisiting the music and stories behind The Wheel on a special run of shows. The Dakota is one of the very few venues to host this special duo show.

Recorded in the early 1990s when Rosanne first moved to New York City and co-produced by Cash and Leventhal, The Wheel sparked a reinvention of her sound and career and is the beginning of a lifelong creative partnership between the two.

The Wheel sessions were “a thrilling mix of truly gifted people,” remembers Rosanne, who was joined by Benmont Tench, Bruce Cockburn, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Marc Cohn and Steuart Smith, among others. “John and I grew closer with every session, and by the end of the record, we were a couple. The music was both a revelation and the revelator.” 

Rosanne Cash is America’s foremost musical woman of letters, a literate and incisive artist whose poignant and distinctive vocals turn every song into a revelatory tale. A singular artist at the peak of her interpretive powers, Cash has earned four Grammy awards—three for The River & The Thread (2014)—and 12 additional nominations. Among many other accolades, in 2021 she became the first woman to receive the Edward MacDowell Award for music composition. 

John Leventhal is a six-time Grammy Award-winning musician, producer, songwriter, and recording engineer who has produced albums for William Bell, The Blind Boys Of Alabama, Michelle Branch, Rosanne Cash, Marc Cohn, Shawn Colvin, Sarah Jarosz, Jim Lauderdale, Joan Osborne, Loudon Wainwright III, and many others.
