Following their impressive set at the Sakamoto Mixer during the 2021 CCMAs, Lemon Cash signed with Sakamoto Agency, playing a record number of shows in 2022, including an ambitious nine shows in 10 days at the Calgary Stampede, as well as a showcase for the CMAO's (Country Music Association of Ontario), CountryFest in Manitoulin, Cochrane Summerfest, Rock N Country By The Lake, and Coulee Fest at Lethbridge College.
