Chris MacDonald, with his dynamic eight-piece band and dancers, draws his audience in with the look, sounds, and nuances that made Elvis the King in a heartfelt tribute to music and memories of the legendary performer. Adding to the authenticity of his tribute, Chris has the ultimate honor of being the “Only Tribute Artist hired by Elvis Presley Enterprises to perform at Graceland’s Heartbreak Hotel.” With this newly updated production, the show will include costume changes, songs, and video clips telling the story of the different stages of Elvis’s incredible career including the 1950′s, the Movies, the 1968 Comeback, and the 1970′s White Fringe Vegas Concerts. It’s all a part of this loving tribute to one of the greatest entertainers of all time. An accomplished and experienced entertainer, Chris has performed in Vegas, Branson and with the famous Legends in Concert stage productions. He has also headlined with Elvis’ own original back up group, the Jordanaires and D.J Fontana at the famous Hard Rock Live Concert Arena. His full production show has consistently sold out venues throughout the country. “Chris MacDonald’s performances stand on their own. The show is not a parody or an overdone impersonation. It is a natural, heartfelt tribute to an American Icon and his music.”
