Donny Edwards - Tribute to Elvis
|
Donny Edwards
- *As seen on ABC’s show “The Next Best Thing”
- *One of the Top Three finalist on ABC’s show “The Next Best Thing and at Elvis Enterprise’s first sanctioned contest held in Memphis during Elvis week recently.
- *Grand Champion winner in two large organizations as the Top Elvis Tribute Artist in 2006 and 2007.
Donny grew up listening to Elvis music and watching movies of the Rock "N" Roll legend. Donny was very impressed knowing that in 1959, his uncle had met Elvis while in the Army and stationed in Germany. As years went by, Donny would imitate the moves and voice of Elvis. People would constantly tell Donny how strong his look was to Elvis. When Donny won a local Elvis contest in Texas, he then decided that he wanted to show his talent to all the fans that loved and respected the King.
In October, 2004, Donny had the honor of being asked by the family of Dale Earnhardt, Jr. to perform for a Nascar party hosted by the drivers, family and friends. Not only was his performance raved about, but it was an exciting experience to perform to the many celebrities that attended. Donny had the opportunity to perform for the New York Jets during a Monday Night Football Halftime Show between the Jets and Titans, which was aired on ABC and seen nationally. Other national TV shows Donny appeared has appeared on is The "Vegas Show", MTV, The Travel Channel, and Fox Sports Net and Fox News.

In May 2005, when “The Young & The Restless” daytime soap opera was scouting for the look and sound of Elvis, Donny was offered the job immediately after he auditioned. He surprised many of his fans as they watched their favorite soap opera only to see Donny Edwards on the show with a singing part.
In 2005, Donny won the People’s Choice Award for the Best 50’s Elvis from the Gibson Guitar company in Nashville, Tenn. This is one of many of the first place winnings Donny has received.
2006 started off with Donny Edwards taking “1st Place” in the Tribute to The King contest at the Isle of Capri in Mississippi being awarded $25,000.00 This award was not only an honor, but it was also having The Jordanaires sing back up that made this award so special.
2007 started the year off winning another big contest taking 1st place again winning $25,000.00.
Another honor for Donny is that he was asked to perform at the 50th anniversary of Elvis returning to Tupelo. The event took place in June of 2006 where again Donny had the ultimate pleasure of performing with The Jordanaires in front of 14,000 people in Elvis' hometown.
All of Donny’s shows are special to him, but when he was requested to perform during Elvis week in August, 2006 for the first annual Tribute Show for Elvis Presley Enterprise in Memphis, he felt that there were no words to describe the gratitude of being requested to perform in memory of Elvis Presley.
Donny is the most sought out Elvis Tribute Artist in the country and performs in Casinos, Theaters, Corporate Events and Festivals throughout the US and Internationally including the UK, Japan, Mexico, Hong Kong, Argentina, Canada and Chile. He now performs quite often with The Jordanaires, The Sweet Inspirations and DJ Fontana.
He is a versatile performer with the ability to re-create each era of Elvis Presley’s life. Donny’s performance is dynamic, as he brings you back to the early years of the 50’s with his Gold Lame jacket and songs of the movie years, to the sexy, black leather '68 Comeback years, ending with the legendary Vegas years. Donny maintains a performance of incredible authenticity. His incredible look, singing, humbleness, charm and southern speaking voice will make you feel like you are with the King.
