Get Rhythm with Johnny Cash show

Get Rhythm: A Tribute to Johnny Cash will be staged at the Town Hall this Saturday night at 8pm

The show is courtesy of a group of eight musicians who have recently toured the prisons of Ireland, recreating the prison concerts undertaken by Johnny Cash and his band in the 1960s.

Following the prison tour, this eight-piece band (replicating the classic Cash, Tennessee Three, Carter Family and Carl Perkins line-up) is now taking the performance to venues around the country playing songs from throughout Cash’s career.

Paul McCann will be recreating the role of Johnny Cash and June Carter’s vocal duties will be performed by Louise O’Reilly.

The musicians, who have been performing together in various line ups for fifteen years, have been performing the show in prisons for four months and are dedicated to staying true to the spirit of the performances which they are recreating.

 Tickets: €19/€17 from tht.ie. 091-569777 and the venue.
