Parton With Cash Programme of Events
I’ve been talked into putting on a Country Festival in the Moville area, specifically, Parton With Cash (Dolly and Johnny). I liked the title so that’s why I went for it. I thought it could get publicity with that title. The pubs like the sound of it too.
It will take place the weekend before Halloween from October 24th to 26th.

The Acts are:-
Paddy the Shoe
Paddy already plays around 15 to 20 Johnny Cash songs. He is arguably the top musician in the area.
Debbie & Geraldine
They play a lot of Johnnie Cash songs and include Jolene in their normal set. They are looking forward to the weekend with excitement and are hoping to get a gig.
Melissa & Kevin
Melissa can already do 5/6 Dolly Parton songs and she and Kevin will do a mixed Dolly / Johnnie set.
Michael Douglas
I haven’t spoken to Michael yet as I don’t have his contact details but he plays an all country set so he must be able to do a load of Johnny Cash songs. It would be a strange country singer who couldn’t.

The Parton for Cash country festival sounds like a good idea. Let me know if you need another entertainer for this, I will be performing in Lanzarote but could be persuaded to fly over to play some Johnny Cash songs and other country, jiving and rock n rock classics !!!
