Johnny Folsom 4, a Johnny Cash Tribute
Friday, April 14, 2023 at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets: $25 Adults, Seniors & Students

From A Boy Named Sue to Ring of Fire, the Johnny Folsom 4 pays tribute to the legendary Man in Black. Lead singer David Burney brings a lilting southern baritone to Cash’s classic songs, which hits the mark well enough that you will wonder if Johnny himself is in the building. David Gresham more than meets the challenge of filling in for Luther and Carl Perkins on those classic guitar licks, and Tom Mills (bass) and Randy Benefield (drums) provide the hallmark, train-like driving rhythm the whole world loves. And when the boys are living right, the remarkable Miss Eleanor Jones joins in on those classic Johnny and June duets – it’s hotter than a pepper sprout! True to the Mr. Cash’s poetic spirit, JF4 promises an honest and entertaining performance for fans of all ages. For more information, visit the band’s website at www.johnnyfolsom4.com.
