Aaron Black will present a Tribute to Elvis in Concert show (yes, Elvis will be performing!) and then will explain how he became an Elvis Tribute Artist (ETA). Will some lucky ladies in the front row get a scarf or a lei? The program concludes with a history of Elvis in Denver and Aaron will answer questions about ETA’s and Elvis trivia. Are you familiar with the Elvis sandwich?
Aaron Black has been performing his Award-Winning Tribute to Elvis for over 25 years. He has won two “Best-in-Show” awards at the Air Force Talent competitions and many other awards! Aaron has performed in two television commercials (one local, one nation-wide) and in one radio commercial and was a finalist for a recent Apple nationwide commercial.
The 5 Elvis Suits that he currently wears are authentic $4000 recreations of Elvis’ most famous suits, including the Aloha Eagle Jumpsuit worn in the Aloha From Hawaii TV Concert! These suits are created by some of the same people who created Elvis’ original suits and are licensed by Elvis’ estate and were also used in the new “Elvis” movie! He owns three of these Aloha Eagle jumpsuits, two in white and a stunning black version as well! He also performs in the blue “Owl” suit as seen in the movie “Elvis on Tour” and the black, gold and red “Matador” suit. No other Elvis Tribute Artist in Colorado has such an impressive collection of authentic suits!
Aaron always mixes a little humor and Elvis trivia into every hip-shaking show. He is often asked if he is lip-synching, but it really is Aaron singing. He has even performed for two people who knew the real Elvis and both gave him high marks!
Aaron has always been an Elvis fan. As a child, he saw Elvis perform live six times. He met his future wife the day after Elvis died when she asked him about the black armband he was wearing. They became best friends and were married several years later!
