FREE Johnny Cash Tribute Concert At Tewksbury Library On 8/23

Counterfeit Cash will perform on the library's back lawn.

TEWKSBURY, MA — Enjoy a concert from the premiere Johnny Cash tribute band, Counterfeit Cash, on Monday, August 23, 2021, from 6pm to 7:30pm, on the back lawn of the Tewksbury Public Library.

Influenced by Johnny Cash in his younger years while listening to the great lyrics of the "Man in Black" and the story that they told, lead singer Rodney Brunelle – with his Johnny Cash voice – made it his mission in life to keep the stories of Johnny Cash going. The band performs the songs that "The Man In Black" made famous, including “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Ring of Fire,” “Hurt,” “Big River,” and many more. If you close your eyes, you’ll swear you’re listening to Johnny Cash.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their own blankets or chairs. Overflow parking is available in the field across from the library’s parking lot, and in the hospital’s parking lots. There is no parking allowed along Hospital Road.
