During an outdoor concert filled with an audience of prisoners at the Topeka Correctional Facility, rock singer Melissa Etheridge confidently informs the all-female crowd that “You are the only you,” before she hits them with a rendition of her 1993 single, “I’m the Only One.” Eerily reminiscent of Johnny Cash’s infamous prison tour during his musical career, Etheridge ushers in a modern concert experience for a willing throng of listeners that’s not too dissimilar to the rock legend.
