“Garden of Stone” is a deeply personal song written by John Carter, reflecting on the passing of time and the importance of preserving tradition and community. The accompanying music video, directed by his eldest son Joseph Cash and featuring John Carter’s daughter AnnaBelle, adds a poignant visual dimension to the song’s message. The bell used in the recording holds special significance, having been rung by the children and grandchildren at the family rose garden during the passing of John’s mother and father, June Carter Cash and Johnny Cash. The final verse offers hope for the future, promising to build anew and create a new legacy in a “new Garden of Stone.” The video can be seen here, and the song is now available on Spotify, Apple Music, and other streaming services worldwide.
