Shade Jonze

The Strictly Cash Show: The Songs and Times of Johnny Cash features Johnny Cash tunes from the mid '50's to the time of his death in 2003 mixed with songs of his contemporaries like Hank Williams Sr. as well as some recent artists like Josh Turner. “Johnny Cash is one of only ten musicians in both the Country and Rock and Roll Music Halls of Fame,” said Phillips. “That is a tribute to his versatility and the strength of his personality. His commitment to the underdog as “The Man In Black” drew me to his music.” “It is a much deeper well that I thought when I first dropped my bucket down, he added.”

The Players

Well ive played in and watched alot of great bands and just wanted to put together a bunch of "players" who were my favs. We have the main guys but if you are in a band you are in ours. There is always a revolving cast of characters and we never know what is going to happen. Thats the fun part. Kenny Kugel (Iowa Falls)from The Mudpuppies is the main guitar player and does a great amount of vocals(whenever i can get him) and will be there Sunday. Jerry Funk(Charles City) will be on bass and vocals as well. He is the son of Jay Funk who is the bassist for Bill Dewey. Frank Mejia (Mason City) is on drums and that lets me get out front and sing. And then you will never know who will show up, and i'm sure we will have surprises!
