Rained out but showed true Spirit!

Concert Venue"The Folsom Prison Gang" played for our monthly outdoor Concert in the Park series unitl Mother Nature decided to loose with a good old fashioned Mountain thunderstorm. They were only able to play about 3 songs before being rained out, however it was their jovial spirit in adversity and their entertianment of the few people waiting out the storm in the shelter with us that has made it easy to consider them for future events.

Great on Center Stage

rating starrating starrating starrating starrating star

FairWe hired TFPG to perform on Center Stage during the State Fair of WV and they did not disappoint. Their performance took place on our closing Friday and the crowds rallied around their performance. I saw toe tapping, head bobbing and even a bit of dancing as I watched from my office and as I walked through the crowds. TFPG was easy to work w/, professional and respectful of sharing the stage w/ the other performer for that day.
Thanks guys - I LOVED it!

Overview

About

The band was formed in 2007 and primarily performs live shows at festivals, fairs, theater and other specialty type venues around the South East and East Coast. While the Folsom Prison Gang doesn%u2019t promote themselves as an impersonation act, they are heavily influenced by the styles present during the early years of Johnny Cash generally keep the song arrangements somewhat true to the originals (they do spice it up a bit).

In 2011 the band released their first album titled %u201CCash Only%u201D that is a collection of 10 of their favorite Johnny Cash songs covered in their own style. It is available on iTunes, Amazon and several other online music stores.
