“This country and rock ‘n roll show will
have your cowboy boots a tappin’ and your feet a stampin’ so come and celebrate
an American legend…,” promises Roland Stansell, spokesperson of the Rhumbelow Theatre
in Umbilo. “Welcome to Folsom Prison and get ready to hear songs about prison,
trains, guns, love and heartache.”
Set in Folsom Prison and running over two
weekends, The Johnny Cash Show is a
tribute to the great Johnny Cash which has played to sold -ut audiences in
Durban and is back by popular demand.

expertise on the guitar and encompassing low-pitch vocals that fit perfectly
with the Cash sound. Joining Rob on stage is his brother Garth Warren on bass
and vocals, Gareth Gale rocking out on the drums and Clare McIlroy who takes on
the role of June Carter with an irresistible upbeat country performance.
