ELVIS THE WONDER OF YOU Announces Two Encore Shows After the sellout success of the Wonder of You concert series last year, the King of Rock'n'Roll is back in Australia due to overwhelming demand.

RCM Touring announces a triumphant celebration of Elvis Presley with two Encore Shows in August this year. For audiences that missed out, this is a way for them to experience this show in a way that many have never. The Wonder of You Elvis Encore Shows 2018 will feature the 40-piece Chong Lim symphony orchestra live on stage performing the King's most well-known songs and ballads. Music fans will be totally immersed in the world of Elvis and once again, be captivated by the man who changed the course of popular music, in this world-class concert event.

Elvis Presley is the highest selling solo artist in history (having sold an astonishing one billion records worldwide) and this encore concert spectacular, will feature the most recognizable voice of all time with a full symphony orchestra live on stage performing the King of Rock and Roll's most well-known hit songs and his tender, heart-wrenching ballads.

Following the release of two chart-topping Sony Music Legacy Recordings albums, If I Can Dream: Elvis Presley with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 2015,and The Wonder of You: Elvis Presley with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 2016, comes this thrilling Encore announcement. The stage production will feature Elvis Presley on state-of-the-art screens, specially designed for this arena tour and backed by a full 40-piece symphony orchestra for three performances. These concert dates follow hot on the heels of a sold-out arena tour in the United Kingdom in November 2016, an upcoming United Kingdom tour in November 2017, and acclaimed European and Australian arena shows earlier last year.

Priscilla Presley on the eve of departing for Australia for her tour in November 2017, ELVIS AND ME: AN EVENING WITH Priscilla Presley commented, "What an honor for us to be able to produce two encore performances for Australia. A live concert experience that evolved out of what has become a very prestigious and beloved album series backed by a full and rich symphony orchestra." Actress, producer, author and entrepreneur Priscilla Presley was instrumental in turning Graceland into a world-renowned attraction and Elvis Presley Enterprises into a highly successful entertainment, licensing and merchandising organization.
