Elvis - The Early Years
FROM THE EARLY YEARS TO THE VEGAS YEARS MATT CAGE DOES ELVIS PROUD! John Lennon once said, Before Elvis, there was nothing. That may not be entirely true. There was something. But it wasnt rock n roll. Elvis had the voice, style and heart-stopping good looks that made people take notice. And he could sing. Musical genres meant nothing. His unique voice and singing style merged them all into something fresh and new. And during a late night jam session at Sun Records, Elvis, guitarist Scotty Moore, and bassist Bill Black, found the right groove. The rest is rock n roll history. Much has been written about The King Of Rock n Roll. But behind the myth are some interesting facts. Elvis debut album, Elvis Presley was the first rock n roll album to top the Billboard chart, where it remained for 10 weeks. His hit single Dont Be Cruel held the #1 position on the Billboard chart for 11 weeks, a feat that remained unmatched for 36 years. By 1961, Elvis had sold 75 million records, including the best selling Christmas album of all time. Worldwide sales of his singles and albums are now in the 1 billion range. During his appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, 82.6% of TV viewers watched, turning Elvis into an international celebrity. Elvis cultural impact cannot be overstated. His image, movies, and music unified a generation of young people. Many of those same people, today in their 70s, will tell you that watching Loving You or attending an Elvis tribute show, still makes them feel like they felt when they first laid eyes on The King. Toronto based Matt Cage knows how valuable looking and sounding like Elvis really is. So he is not about to squander his good fortune. When he is on stage, everything must be just right. His attention to detail from costumes to song lists has paid off with a slew of awards and trophies from some of the most prestigious Elvis competitions and festivals on the planet. But as far as he is concerned, its all about living up to the audiences expectations and giving them their moneys worth. His accurate song performances, commanding stage presence and easy rapport with audiences make Matt Cage a world class entertainer. When his name is on the bill, audiences can expect a first show they will want to see again and again.
