Johnny Cash Tribute Concert

He looks like Johnny. He sounds like Johnny. He moves like Johnny. Nobody does Johnny Cash like Terry Lee Goffee. Terry Lee performs an amazing tribute to the ‘man in black” in his heartwarming tribute to the country music legend.

 An early career in country music and then 18 years singing gospel music provided Terry Lee with all the tools needed to put together a tribute show to one of country music’s own superstars, Johnny Cash. Terry Lee brings Johnny Cash back to life for two hours a night all over the country.

 “I wanted to make my show a little different and unique by portraying Johnny Cash in the first person, rather than just standing there singing the songs” stated Mr. Goffee. “Like an actor in a play, I literally become my character Johnny Cash, from the moment I walk onstage until the end of the show.” His moves are identical to Cash's holding and strumming the guitar at the neck. Even the three-piece band stays in character, reflecting Cash's actual band in look and sound.

 In 2003, Terry Lee’s tribute act was performed in Nashville with Cash’s brother and sister attending. Tommy Cash stated, "My brother would be proud.” Joanne Cash Yates commented, "It's a wonderful show, I would recommend it to anyone; you don’t impersonate my brother, you pay tribute to him with honor.”

Among the 34 songs included in the tribute are such Cash classics as:  “A Boy Named Sue”, “Sunday Morning Coming Down”, “I Walk The Line”, “Ring Of Fire”, “Folsom Prison Blues”, "Ragged Old Flag. As for which Cash song is Goffee’s favorite, he points to “Give My Love to Rose.”

  In between songs, Goffee tells the stories behind the songs and about Cash's life. He also traces Cash's career from his childhood in Arkansas to his time in the Air Force and recording years with Sun and Columbia.

 Terry Lee’s Tribute to Johnny Cash has taken him all across the U S, Canada, Ireland and the UK.

In 2009 he was selected to provide the moves for the Johnny Cash character in Guitar Hero 5.
