Hide AdDespite being regarded as one of the greatest country music stars of all time, his popularity transgressed all genres.
His religious background appealed to gospel and country audiences but he was also highly acclaimed among heavy metal fans for his wilder side.
All the big hits will be performed in that unmistakable Cash croak including, Ring of Fire, I Got Stripes, Get Rhythm, Folsom Prison Blues and Hurt, not to mention many more from the great man’s mammoth catalogue of songs.
Joe Corey Promotions, the manager of the band, states that Johnny Mac has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Cash’s music and bears an uncanny resemblance to the ‘Man in Black’ in both voice and style.
