Adam Dowling on BBC Radio SussexAvailable for 22 days
The story of Johnny Cash and June Carter, their love story and incredible back catalogue of music, is being immortalised in a brand new stage musical, The Ballad of Johnny and June. Adam meets Christopher Ryan Grant, who takes on the role of Johnny. We also catch up with Dave Baxter from the hugely popular band The Blunter Brothers, made up of top musicians from around Sussex, who are playing over at Farnham Maltings this weekend. And another chance to hear Adam's chat with Happy Mondays frontman and all-round unpredictable conversationalist Shaun Ryder, ahead of a 22-date tour which brings the band to Brighton.
