Scottish Elvis
Ross grew up in a town called Greenock which is 40 mins from Glasgow. Elvis was always music that was in my ear growing up with my father and grandfather etc. Although Ross was happily married in Vegas in 2015 in the same church as Elvis was married in the Movie Viva Las Vegas, I wasn’t actually crazy about Elvis until 2017. I went to Parkes by default…. I was simply hooked after the Parkes Elvis Festival weekend. After the weekend I began downloading Elvis constantly and it was all I listened too. Since then…. I began Following Elvis clips etc on YouTube, I noticed that he stopped in Scotland on his way to Germany with the army and the airport in Scotland still have a memorial of Elvis.
The kings blood line comes from Scotland back in 1743 which not many people know and when I learned this I felt I had no choice to do Tartan suits in memory of the king of Rock and Roll.
Scottish Elvis was born.
A couple of quick stints on stage and I have absolutely loved it. In 2023 I performed on the ELVIS EXPRESS, Shows at the Parkes, Bowls and Sports Club including the ELVIS WORLDWIDE DINNER SHOW featuring Elvis’s from Japan, New Zealand, Australia and myself from Scotland…. And other spots around the festival…. It was incredible!! I really look forward to more fun and really just hoping I can sing some of the songs with the passion they deserve.
