Johnny Folsom 4

Johnny Folsom 4  - From A Boy Named Sue to Ring of Fire to Rusty Cage, Johnny Folsom 4 is the ultimate tribute to the legendary Man in Black.

Lead singer David Burney’s lilting southern baritone delivers Cash’s classic songs so well you may well wonder from time to time if Johnny himself is in the building.

John Fussell fills the shoes of Luther and Carl Perkins on those classic guitar licks, while Randy Benefield (drums) and Steve Eisenstadt (bass) provide that hallmark, train-like rhythm the whole world knows and loves.

So what is Supper & Soul, the hit Dinner and Concert Series?

A single ticket buys you a three-course dinner at a downtown restaurant and the concert (concert only tickets available as well.)

$85 includes Concert, Dinner, tax and tip (drinks on you + tip)

$35 Concert only

After the concert, show your ticket at any of the participating restaurants and receive special happy hour pricing on drinks

Concert in the Trefz Forum on the campus of the Westport Library

6pm dinner - 8pm show
