Event Description


This show delivers a genuine Johnny Cash experience, celebrating the life and music of 'The Man In Black' and his vivacious wife, June Carter. Spanning Johnny Cash's entire career from his beginnings at Sun Records in the 1950s to his later years with the American Recordings label in 2003, the concert showcases his most iconic hits. These include "Ring of Fire," "Boy Named Sue," "I Walk The Line," "Folsom Prison Blues," "Hurt," and the renowned duet "Jackson" performed with June Carter.


Ward Cornforth stars as Johnny Cash from the 1960s and brings to life the duets Johnny famously performed with his lifelong partner, June Carter. Together with his band, Ward Cornforth masterfully replicates Cash's signature hits, capturing the unique "boom-chicka-boom" sound of Cash's original backing band, The Tennessee Three. This show has captivated audiences everywhere, from theatres and festivals to showrooms and remote First Nation communities.


Beyond just the music, the performance is a delightful, toe-tapping journey down memory lane. Ward intertwines historical narratives and personal stories about the legendary Country artist and American poet. This musical tribute, which has touched the hearts of countless fans, is an event you won't want to miss.
