STRICTLY CASH 5 piece Johnny Cash tribute

In 2008, STRICTLY CASH played in Dublin’s Mountjoy Prison, commemorating the 40th anniversary of Johnny Cash’s famous Folsom Prison concert, and for which lead singer Barry penned the song “Mountjoy”, in the style of the Man in Black.

Ten years later, they marked the 50th anniversary of Folsom by playing 3 sell-out shows on Ireland’s Alcatraz, Spike Prison Island, in Cork Harbour. Another highlight for STRICTLY CASH was headlining Europe’s first Johnny Cash Festival, in Austria.

Barry has met and chatted with Johnny Cash & June Carter on numerous occasions. A regular performer in Austria and Germany, Barry has also performed at the Carter Family Fold in Virginia, and performed with Tommy Cash, (Johnny’s brother), at the Storytellers Museum, Bon Aqua, Tennessee.

This event is ran by Keith Woodgate and he has been working on this event since January with support from Cork County Council. A fantastic day of top notch music by some of Europe's greatest tribute bands with music ranging from 60s to 80s.
