The Man in Black The Belgian Johnny Cash tribute

We need a performance space of at least 3 x 4 meters (solo, duo and trio) and 6 meters x 4meters for the full band. We require at least one 220 v power socket and 3 parking spaces (band), 1 or 2 for trio.

We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in and out our equipment.

We can bring our own limited PA system (up to an audience of 200 people) at an extra cost. We can't provide any lighting.

We’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets.

We played for 5000 people on a big stage at the Gent Festival. That's was probably our best experience so far.

We love playing at all sorts of events but prefer theatres , because the audience is very attentive. On the other hand in theatres there's not much room for dancing, therefor bars and pubs are a lot of fun too! The best audience is an festival audience.

I've been gigging for almost 30 years with various bands on various instruments and I've been doing Johnny Cash for almost 10 years (includinh the pandemic). For the last three years I found the best band members ever. Very skilled and motivated musicians.

Johnny Cash of course. And my favourite is Ring of Fire, written by June Carter, a favourite of may people and always a crowd pleaser. It's the moment early on in our set where we get everybody to sing along.

We normally arrive about 2 hours before the performance to set up and soundcheck and eat. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or1 set of 90 minutes (+extra's) Most of the time we end playin about 2 hours. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best.

We’re happy to play outside, as long as the stage is covered. You never know when i'ts gonna rain. If there's no stage we require a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.

We play a set repertoire list. The full repertoire consist of about 40 songs of which we we play 26 tot 28. The clients are welcome to pick 25 songs from the 40 songs list or require to include certain songs. (Or a shorter list of favourites from the 40 songs list for shorter gigs.)

Previous clients have described us as 'strikingly authentic', 'a fresh yet faithful interpretation, 'better than Joaquin Phoenix', 'powerful and energetic', 'they don’t just play Johnny Cash—they embody him.'

Yes, we require a free hot meal and 5 free drinks (max) for every musician as well as tap water on stage during the performance.
