Feel the spirit of Johnny Cash with tribute artist Harold Ford and the Cash Band in concert at the Rochester Opera House on Saturday, Feb 21 at 8 p.m.

Returning to our stage for a third season, The Spirit of Johnny Cash enthralls fans of the legendary Man in Black and his music. Ford and his Cash Band re-create the sound of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three. Laura Lucy joins Mr. Ford and the band as the captivating June Carter Cash. Ford possesses the stage presence and charisma reminiscent of Johnny Cash, lending the feel of a performance at the Grand Ole Opry.

Ford, with a deep baritone voice and striking resemblance to the beloved Man in Black, is inspired to keep the torch burning for the beloved country music icon. With great reverence, Ford says, "The human struggles and challenges which Johnny sang about are as prevalent today as they were throughout his career. He moved us all to look deep with greater passion and understanding at ourselves and others."
