Direct from Las Vegas, Donny Edwards will be bringing his Elvis Presley tribute show, The King, to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on Feb. 2.
The King: A Musical Tribute to Elvis Presley will take you back to the beginning of Elvis’ career in the 1950s and the spark of the rock’n’roll revolution. Relive the moments of the Memphis Flash with hits like Hound Dog, Don’t Be Cruel, Love Me Tender, and All Shook Up.
Travel into the ‘60s with It’s Now or Never, and Viva Las Vegas, then to Elvis’ astonishing climatic concerts of the 1970s with hit songs and performances of Burning Love, My Way, American Trilogy and Suspicious Minds.
Edwards’ performance is so authentic you’ll feel as if you’re watching the King himself. With his looks, moves and voice backed by the fabulous Cadillac Kings band it’s a performance not to be missed.
