| Bryan's Bio As an entertainer, Bryan's shows are dedicated to paying a sincere tribute to a wonderful performer and entertainer that brought so much to so many. Elvis was a one of a kind entertainer with more charisma, stage presence, and pure talent than can be found anywhere today. He is truly a one of a kind performer that could never be duplicated by anyone. Bryan began performing for friends and family at the age of eight which quickly lead him to performing at school functions and talent shows from elementary through high school. At the age of 18, He broadened his musical career to private parties, banquets, and other special events. By age twenty, He had decided to take his tribute show to the next level. He wanted to present a professional first string tribute to the king. He also realized that karaoke was not the answer. Knowing that it would be a difficult task, He set out to audition many different musicians. With a lot of patience and countless auditions, and a lot of “blood, sweat, and tears’, He had finally accomplished his goal! He had himself an electrifying stage band. The musicians He chose have performed both in the studio & the road with many top names in the business including George Jones, Hank Williams Jr., Charlie Pride, John Prine, Little Richard & many others. He has had the opportunity to perform all over the country, and the distinct pleasure to perform on stage with many artists including The Drifters, K.C. & The Sunshine Band, The Coasters, Percy Sledge, Wilson Pickett, Confederate Railroad, Radney Foster and so on. Performing with some of these artists that influenced him has been one of the greatest perks of being in this business. He has won many Elvis look-a-like contests around the country. This incredible likeness to the King has opened doors for him in commercial work as well. His goal as an entertainer is simply to provide a professional tribute to a great performer that many never had an opportunity to witness in person. In mid-2009, Bryan decided to take the Band and his show in a different and exciting new direction! Bryan began to forge a new road while still paying tribute to the King. Bryan and the RRK now perform music from all genres of music from the 50s thru the 80s. Bryan still performs many songs from the King, as well as many other artists that influenced him. Some of these include: Led Zeppelin John Prine Johnny Rivers Creedence Clearwater Revival Johnny Cash Bob Dylan Steve Earle The Blues Def Leppard Ricky Van Shelton Jim Croce Dwight Yoakam The Doors ... and all the rockabilly artists just to name a few. Elvis has been and always will be a main staple in the show. This bright and exciting new direction has opened new doors and opportunities for the band which will lead to many more classy, professional and high energy performances in the future. |
