Festival Background

Welcome to the Johnny Cash Music Festival website!

Ever since she was a child, Founder Jacque Murphy has been a fan of Johnny Cash. As she says, “Who isn’t?” Johnny’s music appeals to generations of fans and continues to gain in popularity. “I’m just a fan”, says Jacque. She teamed up with Co-Founder Ross Emery, local musician and local business owner to create an event to celebrate Johnny Cash and pay tribute to the Man in Black. The dream was to have an old fashioned, hip and modern music festival. No other man’s music could achieve all of that, except the one and only, Mr. Johnny Cash.
