Searching For An Elvis Tribute Artist For An Event

By Diane Foster


When you want to host an event and you need some entertainment for your guests there are different options available. A lot of people will hire a disc jockey or a group of musicians and some people will book tribute artists. If you are trying to find an Elvis Tribute Artist for your event it is a good idea to look at all of the available options before you hire anyone.

Many kinds of tribute act are available and it is extremely important that you select a suitable one for your event. A large number of performers will sound very close to Elvis's sound and they will have spent years polishing their skills. Other artists will also look like the king but it should be noted that a look alike will cost more to hire.

Before you search for a performer you will need to decide what type of show you require. Most artists are able to customize their shows to your requirements ranging from a few numbers to a full length show for larger events. The costs involved will vary and depend on how many songs are performed and the type of show and equipment needed.

Another thing to consider with an Elvis tribute show is the era of music that you want at your event. Presley went through many style changes during his 20 year career and his style of music and dress changed dramatically. You are able to find a performer that impersonates all of the eras from the 50's rock and roll music to the ballads and jump suits of the 70's.

For around five hundred dollars you can hire a singer to turn up in full costume with backing music to perform. If a full show is to be staged with musicians playing live and backing singers then the price will rise considerably. Most singers are able to bring their own PA systems and lighting and also the engineers needed to work on the day of the show.

There are various ways to book a performer and one of the best ways is to use the services of an established entertainment agent. Most agents are able offer a selection of acts to suit your needs as well as all of the stage equipment that will be required. Other benefits of using agencies are that all insurances and permits will be arranged.

You can also find many performers by searching the internet and many will have a web site. The web pages for the singers are worth reading for some useful information and you can spend some time to look at video and photos and a description of the artist. It is always advisable to contact the singer directly and discuss your plans for the show before you book.

One very important thing to consider with tribute singers is availability. A lot performers will travel around to perform and be in high demand at certain times and they should be booked well in advance of your planned event. When you are deciding on where to put on the show it is essential to speak with the management of the venue to check what equipment and licenses are needed.
