What In The World Is An Elvis Gig?

The "Elvis Gig" is how it all started!  Elvis Presley tribute artist Bob Rosencrantz needed a backup group and the skeleton of the One Spirit Gospel Quartet was born.

Elvis won two Grammy awards throughout his career, and they were both for his performances of old time Gospel songs.  Unless you are a follower of Gospel music or a fan of Elvis you probably do not know that Elvis had a great love for Gospel music and was a leading force in the acceptance of this music throughout the nation.  Although cautioned not to do so, he broke ground in the 1960's by performing a Gospel hymn on the Ed Sullivan Show, and introduced millions of people to the music that he really loved.

One Spirit Gospel Quartet carries on this tradition by teaming up with Bob and performing the old Gospel hymns in the same style as Elvis once did.  We also have a great show of Elvis rock and roll that will have your crowd dancing in the isles!  As always, these shows are performed with live music, not with recorded tracks, so Elvis can interact with the crowd and get them totally involved.

Our rock and roll show includes the One Spirit Gospel Quartet as male backup and can also include three of the area's truly great female jazz singers as backup, with keyboard, drums, trumpet, trombone, sax, flute, and guitar.  We can also do a simpler version.  Instrumentation for the Gospel show can also vary as the situation warrants.  With either show your audience members will have an experience that will have them talking for months.
