www.oxfordpac.org/events/detail/million-dollar-quartet
A twist of fate brought together four music legends at Sun Records’ storefront studio in December 1956: Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Elvis Presley. Many details of the actual day are still unknown, but this is what is known: Perkins and Lewis started a jam session and were later joined by Presley and Cash. A newspaper remarked, “This quartet could sell a million!” The moniker was born and stuck. Cash, Lewis, Perkins, and Presley come together again to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year! Sun Records, now donned with a Christmas tree, garland, and mistletoe, rings with the sounds of the season and the chart-toppers that made these four famous. Follow along with the gang’s usual antics as we journey through a story of Christmas past, present, and future. It’s a jam-packed evening of holiday hits and classic characters you won’t want to miss!
