Born and raised in a suburb of St. Louis, Shawn Barker took his schoolboy love for singing and turned it into a career—a one-of-a-kind tribute to Johnny Cash. Universally considered the pre-eminent Johnny Cash tribute artist, Barker shares an uncanny resemblance to Cash. His strikingly similar looks, voice, and spot-on mannerisms revitalize the true character of Mr. Cash, himself, and have led Barker to an immensely successful career performing his tribute to the original “Man in Black.”
