This year’s Elvis Tribute will celebrate the SEVENTIETH anniversary of the events in July 1954 that turned a shy boy into the King - his first recording with Scotty Moore and Bill Black on July 5, 1954, that produced "That's All Right” (and 2 days later, "Blue Moon of Kentucky”), released together as a single on July 19; and the breakthrough performance a few weeks later on July 30 at the Overton Park Shell in Memphis, when he drove the crowd wild with a few shakes and twitches - some call this the first rock and roll concert.

Performing live at this event, the augmented Nashville Honeymoon band transforms itself into the San Francisco Elvis All Stars, made up of local veteran musicians coming together to celebrate Elvis Presley. Each member of the SF Elvis All Stars – leader Hank Maninger, with his musical and life partner Lynne Maes, backed by Joe Kyle Jr. on bass, Leor Beary on drums, and guest Marc Capelle on keyboards - regular rip up local stages playing rockabilly, early rock & roll, traditional country, boogie woogie, and blues – all the music that Elvis loved and performed.
This year’s lineup of amazing guest performers is: the HowellDevine blues band (Joshua Howell, Pete Devine, and the aforementioned Joe Kyle Jr.), versatile soulful rocking vocalist Lydia Walker, former punk rocker turned honky-tonker Johnny Dilks, world famous drag king Leigh Crow as Elvis Herselvis, and rock journalist Ben Fong-Torres.
