Join us at Rutherglen Town Hall to hear world renowned Johnny Lee Memphis and the JLM band, supported with vocals from The Memphis Belles, come together to produce this explosive and dynamic interpretation of Elvis live in concert - The Absolute Elvis Show.
Elvis was Johnny’s very first inspiration. As a small boy Johnny would passionately watch all of Elvis’s movies and listen to his songs and from the age of three was singing and dancing to entertain his family. As a result of that home grown musical talent Johnny has travelled far and wide and continues to entertain people the world over.
Paying homage to the king since 2004, he is absolutely one of the best Elvis Tribute Artists in the business. His craft has led him to work in countries such as Canada, USA, China, Australia, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Italy, Germany, and of course the Mecca for all Elvis Tribute Artists, Memphis Tennessee where he performed directly across from Graceland.
His career has also introduced him to people who knew Elvis personally. They had the following to say about his performance:
“Johnny is doing Elvis proud, when you meet him it’s like you’ve met your new best friend just like it was with Elvis” Charles Stones (Elvis’ tour manager)
“Boy, you sure brought back a lot of great memories for me with what you just done on that stage” Sam Thompson (Elvis’ bodyguard & close friend)
