From "A Boy Named Sue" to "Ring of Fire," four of Raleigh's favorite musical sons pay tribute to the Man in Black with the Johnny Folsom Four. True to the Mr Cash's poetic spirit, the JF4 promises an honest and entertaining performance for fans of all ages.
While nobody sounds like Mr. Cash, lead singer David Burney brings a lilting southern baritone to Cash's classic songs which hits the mark well enough that you may wonder on occasion if Johnny, himself, is in the building. David Gresham more than meets the challenge of filling in for Luther and Carl Perkins on those classic guitar licks. And Joey Ward (bass) and Randy Benefield (drums) provide the hallmark, train-like driving rhythm the whole world loves. When it comes to honoring Johnny Cash, JF4 walks the line.
