Adam Fitzpatrick

Adam's first experience with the world of Elvis Tribute Artists was at the Pacific Northwest Elvis Festival. He began attending the Festival as a spectator and grew to love the music of Elvis Presley. On a dare, never having performed before, he entered the competition in 2008, competing with 14 others and won the Amateur Division.

Adam does all 3 eras of Elvis' musical career, the high energy moves of the `50's, the raspy vocals of the '68 comeback special and the powerful vocals of the Vegas years, complete with authentic costume changes appropriate to the era.

His strengths are stage presence, interaction with the audience and vocal ability. He brings the essence of Elvis to the stage by studying his mannerisms and facial expressions so that the audience is caught up in a personal Elvis experience.

Jack Overbury
Elvis Within

Jack Overbury says there's a little bit of (Elvis within} all of us. But this Port Coquitlam man seems to have it more than most. Overbury sounds and moves like the King himself. Seeing him sit behind the wheel of a bus, delivering one-liners in a Elvis like drawl, you can't help but wonder if you've landed in a National Inquirer story on the whereabouts of missing Elvis. But Overbury is a city bus driver by day but by night he's ELVIS WITHIN !! His remarkable Elvis 70's era ballads earned him a Third Place Finish in the Amateur Division last year at the Penticton Pacific Northwest Elvis Festival. Jack does a superb job at recreating that special magic and spirit of a live Elvis performance.

Scott MacDonald
Virtual Elvis

“Virtual Elvis” is a stage persona created by Scott MacDonald. Scott’s singing career started early as a member of Ottawa’s magnificent Christ Church Cathedral choir. He can remember his Choir Master and music teacher telling him to “take the Elvis out of it” even then.

In the early 1990s Scott happened to hear Elvis performing “American Trilogy” on TV and was spellbound by the “King’s” performance. At that moment he committed himself to a life long study of Elvis’ life and his music. He practiced his performances on friends and family and was soon entertaining at various venues throughout Ottawa. His talent was quite evident and he soon quit his day job to devote his time to his musical career.

Scott has definitely put the “Elvis” back in his music and has delighted thousands across the country from Halifax to Vancouver Island ever since.
