The cast members include Bill Cherry, Ben Klein, Kevin Mills and Victor Trevino, Jr., each representing Elvis during different stages in his career. The Elvis tribute artists will be joined by a live band, back-up singers, dancers, along with an Ann-Margret tribute artist, as well as iconic imagery made available from the Graceland archives.

“We are delighted with the response received thus far for the upcoming tour cycle. We are thrilled to have four of the top Elvis Tribute Artists in the world featured in our cast," said Brian Brigner, Chief Operating Officer of On Stage Touring, the tour’s producers. “The production showcases each performer portraying Elvis in one of four eras: the 1950’s, 1960’s, his movie career and his concert years, so it is the complete musical package.”

“We are excited that the tour is being expanded to give even more Elvis fans the opportunity to see these talented entertainers. It’s great to see four of the finalists from The Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest starring in ELVIS LIVES,” said Scott Williams, Vice President of Marketing for Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc.
