Shawn Barker’s tribute is an accurate and energetic recreation of an American music icon.

With his striking resemblance, spot on mannerisms and baritone voice, Shawn Barker embodies the character and spirit of Johnny Cash. Whether it’s the full theater show with a professional band, the female singing group paying tribute to the Carter Sisters and Jessica Morales singing as June Carter, or the raw, stripped down three piece retro group, the shows are

bringing the legend back to life onstage for the fans of today and the next generation.

The energetic show features Barker in character throughout the entire evening, walking the audience through each era of Cash’s life and music, including hits like “Folsom Prison Blues,” “I Walk The Line,” “A Boy Named Sue,” “Hurt” and “Ring of Fire,” complete with a full backing band.
