TESTIMONIALS:

"Doug (Johnny) and Kyrst (June)  don’t just sing Johnny Cash songs. They are entertainers. They put on a polished, smooth, impressive show every time they take the stage. This is not a Johnny Cash “Tribute Show”, this is a personal experience with Kyrst and Doug. Their passion fills the stage with a new energy for the songs and music which have been part of another generation. Audiences may enter the theatre as Johnny Cash fans, but they leave as Doug and Kyrst Fans."
