Description

At 6'5" tall and slender, with that long black coat, dark hair piled high and an acoustic guitar slung over his shoulder, Steve Waddington is the definitive image of Johnny Cash in his prime! And when he steps up to the mic to sing, that big, rich, baritone voice leaves no doubt, this IS the Ultimate Johnny Cash Tribute! Steve not only sounds like Johnny Cash, he plays guitar just like Johnny did and delivers the songs with the same intense passion. It all comes together to make “Cashin' In” the most authentic Johnny Cash tribute yet!
A career highlight came when Steve and his band were ... selected to be the musical entertainment for an awards show in Los Angeles, and Kris Kristofferson was an honoree, chosen to receive an award. He then joined the band onstage to perform a number of his hits and they sounded great together! Kris' wife, Lisa, said "it sounds amazing, like you've been playing with Kris forever!" Everyone...Kris, the band, the audience, and especially Steve (who's a huge Kristofferson fan) had a great time! Later, as they were hanging out backstage, Kris signed one of Steve's guitars! Steve still performs with it on occasion! A cherished memento of a magical night!
"You don't even have to LIKE country music to LOVE Johnny Cash. And we LOVE the way Steve sings Johnny Cash". --Wink and Sandy Martindale
This show, “Cashin In, a Tribute to Johnny Cash" excels at re-creating the sound of the Sun studio recordings, and adds elements of the bigger sound from the Johnny Cash TV shows. All the hits: "I Walk the Line", “Folsom Prison Blues”, “Ring of Fire”, “A Boy Named Sue”, “Sunday Morning Coming Down” plus his later Rick Rubin hits “Hurt”, “The Man Comes Around”, “Personal Jesus”. And joined by Susan Ritter (schedule permitting) singing “June” on "Jackson" and others. An exciting, authentic tribute to the artistry of the legendary "Man in Black". Read More
