The
Johnny Cash Roadshow
Sunderland
Empire
Thursday 19th May
2016
The spirit of the Man in Black is alive and
‘kicking like a mule’ with an outstanding celebration of the iconic legend by
the Carter/Cash endorsed Johnny Cash Roadshow with a date set at Sunderland
Empire for one night only – Thursday 19th May 2016.
This is gold standard, fire-cracking
entertainment from the first note, delivering an inspired set of cherished
numbers with impeccable rhythmic pace. A dynamic performance from an
unparalleled group of highly talented musicians and a guaranteed treat for
country music lovers and die hard Cash fans alike.
The stage
lights up with a colourful explosion of energy, against a striking backdrop of
classic screen imagery of the ‘real deal’. Clive John, captures the essence of
Cash with exceptional style and confidence. His deep, distinctive vocals are
spot on, evoking pure country magic with Walk the Line, Folsom Prison Blues and
A Thing Called Love.
Charismatic duets with Jill Schoonjan (June
Carter) are superb. Renditions of Don’t You Think It’s Come Our Time and
Jackson, encapsulate the tender charm and uplifting humour shared by the late
enigmatic pair. The music doesn’t miss a beat as the set glides seamlessly
along, evoking a timeless quality of a golden era with fresh contemporary
flair.
Martin Bentley (bass) is in a league of his own
and Nick Davis (guitars) and Darren Bazzoni (drums) first class. Backing vocals
by Louise Masters and Amanda Stone add sparkle and glamour as the Carter
sisters, complimenting the line up with equally impressive versatility.
Despite the band’s professional portfolio and
slick stage presence they each a direct intimacy with audiences of all ages
that other performers can’t quite pull off. This is more than just a show, it’s
a heart warming story played out with genuine passion and a wonderful
celebration of one of worlds greatest known artists.
