About us
Elvis Alive is a professional Elvis tribute show, featuring Paul Fenech and his band. Based in Sydney, but regularly performing around Australia and the world, the show is available for private functions as well as public events.
If you read a brief history of Elvis Alive you will see Paul has always loved Elvis and enjoys nothing more than performing for audiences and giving them a taste of the King’s magic. Paul sings all the songs, wears authentic costumes, and moves like Elvis did thanks to his karate expertise.
Four Elvis’ together!
Elvis: The Showcase was produced by Paul Fenech to add a different perspective for Elvis fans and to create a new dimension to Club auditorium Shows.
Paul explains. “I put myself in the shoes of Elvis Fans and Club managers, and entertainment agencies. We’ve seen just about every professional or semi-professional Elvis tribute act, but what about seeing them on stage together?”
“Clubs are looking for something different in the way of entertainment, and dont get me wrong, the Elvis club act continues to draw audiences. But it’s been around for 27 years now and I think Elvis: The Showcase will start to redefine the Elvis tribute show and bring it back into the spotlight.”
“So I got three Elvis’, plus myself, together for a one off show that would give audiences the opportunity to see four Elvis’ on stage together.”
“The task was not easy as many Elvis tribute artists refuse to perform with other artists. We had to sort out song lists, who comes on first, who will finish the show, rehearsals and so much more. We also had the task of preparing my eight piece band to work with four vocalists on the one night. But we did it.”
“The innagaural show at Parramatta Leagues Club was full to capacity on the night of the 26th September 2003 and the audience let us know they were enjoying every minute. We had women throwing themselves on stage, people dancing, people starring in amazement at the vocal, visual, and huge production that graced the stage.”
“It was better than I had ever imagined.”
“The aim is to use different Elvis tribute artists at each show.”
“All Elvis tribute acts must produce promotional videos of their previous shows and a CD highlighting their vocal ability. The Showcase can give a new talent a start and some serous exposure to Elvis fans. It dosen’t matter if your young or old or from what background, if you bring the King to the stage with you, if you can depict Elvis in a way that’s different, if you have something at all to offer the legion of Elvis fans, then you’re eligible to apply to be in The Showcase.”
“To this day, The Showcase features some of the best Elvis look-a-likes, vocalists, and stage acts ever seen in Australia. We have applicants from New Zealand and Malaysia as well as some home-grown talent.”
