“Church Of Cash – Johnny Cash Tribute Band” has a special quality that is best appreciated when heard through the voice of lead singer Jay Ernest with his natural, calm, deep bass-baritone voice. This Minneapolis-based band will be at the Edge Center in Bigfork this month with a performance that everyone will enjoy. Singer and guitarist Jay Ernest is joined by Jonathon TeBeest on drums, Albert Perez playing electric guitar, and Eric Struve playing upright bass, in a performance suitable for all ages. The performance will take place on Saturday, June 24 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under.

“Johnny Cash has been a very important figure in my life,” said Earnest. “My father sang many of his songs to me as a child and unwittingly, I remember every one that he sang to me to this day. It made it very easy to get a set list together for the show. Johnny influences me even off the stage. His love for his wife is legendary. I keep that sentiment in my relationship with my wife, Christa, whom I love completely. His dedication to the American story is what excites me. His music has something for everyone to relate to and hold dear. Johnny is one of America’s greatest artistic treasures.”
