This hit-packed show is the ultimate Johnny Cash experience, celebrating the music and life of ‘The Man In Black’ and his spirited partner, June Carter. From the 1950s Sun Records days to his final American Recordings in 2003, this concert covers Johnny’s entire career, delivering all the classics—”Ring of Fire,” “A Boy Named Sue,” “I Walk the Line,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Hurt,” and of course, the famous duet “Jackson” with June Carter, along with many other timeless tunes.
Ward Cornforth steps into the boots of a 1960s-era Johnny Cash, nailing the duets with June Carter and recreating Cash’s biggest hits with the signature sound of The Tennessee Three. Whether in theaters, festivals, showrooms, or even remote First Nation communities, audiences have been swept away by the iconic “boom-chicka-boom” sound in this captivating, respectful, and downright fun show.
It’s a toe-tapping journey down memory lane, with Ward mixing in historical tidbits and personal stories about the Country Legend and American Poet. For anyone who’s ever been a fan of Johnny Cash, this musical event is one you don’t want to miss!
