Stage
Celebrating The 60’s….
“The
Illusion of Elvis” starring Danny Vernon & The Deville’s
Elvis
Presley's voice, soul and presence would always cut through the
deepest of scratched RCA records. This is what Danny Vernon
found at a very early age when he began singing along with his
Father's discarded albums unaware of Presley's vast impact in
American culture. With a devout passion, Danny would sing and
dance along with the King's music trusting that one day he would
be recapturing his own "Illusion of Elvis" show on stage.
Danny's professional experiences have included being a singing
server at a revolving restaurant, strumming guitar and singing
acoustic folk/rock tunes in lounges and nightclubs, and
recording an original country album in Nashville receiving
national airplay. This broad backdrop of skillful versatility
helps give stability and genuineness to his "Illusion of Elvis"
show. He enjoys performing all 3 decades of Elvis' career,
including the "recklessly abandoned" hillbilly cat 50's, the
sleek 60's movie years including the Comeback Special, and the
sexy 70's jumpsuit years. In his own words, "From the many years
of admiration of Elvis, I've sought to create a show that would
hold the excitement of the King on stage throughout various
stages in his career. I also try to show respect and support the
integrity of the man and his music." With the voice, look, and
passion of the twentieth century icon, Danny Vernon strives to
re-capture Elvis Presley's appeal to an ever-growing audience.
