\"\"It’s a three-peat.
\nConcert in the Park audiences who’ve loved Matt King’s Elvis Presley Tribute Show the past two seasons will be pleased to know that the “Hound Dog” is returning again in 2010.
\n\"\"King is “Elvis” at the Aug. 25 Concert in the Park season finale at the St. Johns City Park Performance Shell. The show begins at 7 p.m.; no admission charge.
\nA resident of Leslie, King has traveled all over the United States and Europe entertaining audiences with his unique ability to bring to the “King” to life via his moves, mannerisms, looks and costuming \u2013 and, of course, that distinctive voice.
\nHe’s earned national and international acclaim for the Elvis show he\u2019s been performing on a professional level for the past 18 years. Among his many honors are first place awards in 2007 in the Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort’s Elvis Contest, and the 2004 Elvis European Championship.
\n“Some guys choreograph every move \u2013 I try to capture the way Elvis expressed himself for the audience. The way he moved his hand, shook his leg or held the mic,” King says.
\nAttention to detail \u2013 like the 30-plus Elvis costumes contained in King\u2019s wardrobe \u2013 lend authenticity to his shows.
\n“They\u2019re all here: the peacock, the Arabian, the sundial, the sunburst, the dragon,” he says.
\n\"\"
