THE MAGIC OF ELVIS

Celebrity tribute artist Marshall King
has touched many hearts with his deep velvety voice
 

This big-hearted crooner’s natural talent for emulating great performers – Elvis Presley is winning him plenty of publicity and he has a following even from across the Atlantic. There have already been several requests for him to go and perform in the USA and, as a finalist in the European Elvis Tribute Championships in both 2005 and 2006, he has recently been featured on both BBC1 and Sky TV.

Marshall King has spent 18 years on stage which shows in his performances  a Natural Born Entertainer.  He has spent a year studying every piece of Elvis footage he could get hold of and watching a hundred hours of film a hundred times over but also adding to the performance his own character and personality which Marshall has a natural gift of stage presents and crowd interaction.

Though Marshall does perform Elvis as a GI and sings some of his songs from the fifties and sixties, he prefers to specialize in the seventies.

Just one of Marshall's many audiences that come to see his show.

Special Note:

Marshall will be in the US in May 2008....keep watch for concert dates and times!!!

European Finals Jan '06

Marshall’s wears only the best tailored costumes ,when he appears on stage the transformation is remarkable. His many outfits, all custom-made in the USA, span the black leathers of Presley’s comeback in 1968 to the white jumpsuits of the later Vegas shows and are exact copies ‘stone for stone, stud for stud’ as the originals. There are accessories to match, including sunglasses made by Elvis’s personal optician.

 A few years ago Marshall was befriended by Elvis’s hairdresser and close friend, Larry Geller who in Elvis’s last years had moved into his home, Graceland

Larry was a judge on the Panel at the European Championships and made a point of telling Marshall how much his look, voice and general presence reminded him of Elvis.

"Please keep the memory of my dearest friend alive," Mr. Geller had said – a promise Marshall vows to keep.
