ABOUT

We re-create Elvis concerts. We have fun with it. We have a female singer for duets & harmonies and we engage the audience, unlike others that do this. Theater work & summer festivals are what we love to do but we do some local stuff just for fun. The keyboardist needs carry the brass sections and the piano. We do more than the classic and its tougher than most think it is. Elvis covered, Willie Nelson, Ray Charles, Neil Diamond, Three Dog Night etc. He added orchestration to it all. We are looking for a down to earth versatile team player. Being able to sing harmony is a definite plus. We like camaraderie in the group. We get together and perfect our craft and discuss what's next. Concerts to look at for reference would be “Elvis On Tour, Aloha from Hawaii. Vegas-Elvis at the International Hotel" If this is of interest drop me line.
