Dwight IcenhowerRonny Craig

A Tribute to The King

Dwight Icenhower has had the opportunity to share the stage with some personal friends of Elvis® including: DJ Fontana, The Jordanaires, The Sweet Inspirations, Cynthia Pepper, Julie Parrish, Charlie Hodge and Joe Esposito.

Dwight is recognized for his good looks and his amazing voice that has sometimes even been mistaken for Elvis® himself. He continues to awe audiences of all ages and his fans enjoy him both on and off stage. He wishes to continue using his amazing talent to keep the memory of Elvis® alive for many more generations to come. Dwight says that he considers it a dream come true to have such a wonderful job and having the opportunity to meet such wonderful people!

Dwight Icenhower was raised in Pomeroy, OH and began his Elvis® career by singing karaoke at a local fair when he was just 16 years old. Now, he is one of the very few Elvis® tribute artists that have made a full-time career out of keeping the legend alive.

Dwight performs 4-5 shows weekly and he keeps the audiences asking for more. Born four years after The King passed away, Dwight has studied every move that Elvis® made and has mastered the 50's, 60's, and 70's eras of Elvis®' career. He has performed all over the United States and is planning to perform across the world soon.

Doug Church competed for the first time in the fourth annual Worldwide Elvis Impersonator Contest in Memphis, Tennessee in 1990 against Elvis entertainers from all over the world.  He took home the second place prize in this competition.  The following year, Doug returned to Memphis to capture the first place crown as "The World’s Best Elvis Impersonator."  In 1993, after a successful audition with Legends In Concert (a musical entertainer venue based in Las Vegas, Nevada) he started touring the country and the world.  Doug has performed in such exotic locations as: Bangkok, Hong Kong, Aruba, The Bahamas, Moscow, France, The United Kingdom, and Denmark.

Ted Torres has been playing music since he was a child. Through the years he trained in various types of music. Coming from a family with a musical legacy it was hard to not follow in those footsteps. He takes a lot of pride and joy in making his own original music as well as paying tribute to one of the greatest artist that ever lived. He had many musical heroes but "The King of Rock n' Roll" has always been his main influence.

Ronny Craig is the ideal MC for the premier Elvis event.  Ronny was born in Lake Benton, MN. After finishing school, Ronny went to work as a cattle buyer for his family's business. On the weekends, he entertained as an Elvis tribute artist. In 1993, he was a runner-up in the Images of the King, the World-Wide Elvis Impersonator Championships held each year in Memphis during Elvis week. This contest draws hundreds of professional Impersonators from all over the world.
