Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the release of one of Cash's biggest hits and best loved songs, Ring of Fire, Australia's own 'Man In Black', Daniel Thompson, returns with an award-winning ensemble featuring Golden Guitar Winner and Australian guitar legend, Stuie French.
This two-hour show will feature the tracks that made Johnny Cash's live show something special. June Carter and The Carter Family, The Statler Brothers, Carl Perkins and Cash's gospel greats will all be featured in the first half of the show whilst the second set culminates in Cash's biggest hits including his 1963 hit Ring Of Fire.
Recorded in Nashville with mariachi-style trumpets and the Carter Family on backing vocals, Ring Of Fire (written by June Carter and Merle Kilgore) was Cash's biggest hit earning him the top spot on Billboard's Hot Country Singles Chart for seven weeks. With its instantly recognisable and distinctive sound, it went on to become one of Cash's best-known and most-loved songs.
Joining the tour is multi-Award Winning Singer/Songwriter Tamara Stewart. Stewart took home the Golden Guitar for Vocal Collaboration at this year's Golden Guitar Awards for her self-penned hit, Women in Song, celebrating the long heritage of women in Australian Country Music.
And of course the show wouldn't be complete without its 'engine room', the best rhythm section in the country, The Tennessee Studs.
Last year's 80th Birthday tour was not to be missed. And this show will have music lovers talking for a long time to come.
This authentic tribute to a true icon of the 20th Century will leave audience members feeling like they've just seen the real live Man in Black.
