The show, held at Soldiers Point Bowling Club, was a sellout success.
While the festival has morphed into the Blue Water Country Music Weekend in Port Stephens this year, the 4 Highwaymen are still anticipating a sellout show when they return to Soldiers Point Bowling Club on June 9.
Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson are today still regarded as four of the greatest country music stars of all time.
And together, they formed the legendary supergroup The Highwaymen.
In a time when opinions of what is truly country music have become the subject of much debate, there emerges one show that remains true to the core of what is remembered as being the country music we have grown up with and loved for years – the 4 Highwaymen tribute show.
Australian’s own Bruce McCumstie (Wille), Rob Wilson (Waylon), Alan Bowles (Johnny) and Bryen Willems (Kris) have joined together as 4 Highwaymen to pay homage to the original legends.
The foursome have faithfully recreated the sound and memories of those original Highwaymen tours.
All four artists are seasoned country music entertainers and present a world-class performance together with their live band.
They have patrons acclaiming “the best thing since the real Highwaymen came to town” and “I saw The Highwaymen live and this show is every bit as good as the originals” and “so close to the real thing”.
The most treasured comment of them all came from Willie’s daughter, Amy, who happened to be in the audience one night for a Sydney performance and excitedly exclaimed “I thought I was dreaming there was my dad and three of his best pals on stage”.
There surely can be no greater compliment.
The 4 Highwaymen debuted at the 2011 Tamworth Country Music festival.
Siince then this group have toured the eastern states with sell-out shows as far north to Jupiters Casino in Townsville, the last five Tamworth festivals and the Gympie Muster.
Join the 4 Highwaymen for their return visit to Soldiers Point Bowling Club on June 9 at 8pm.
Doors open 7.30pm. Tickets, $25 each, are available from the club.
