After 15 years experience working at the very
top of the UK Elvis tribute scene Elite Tributes was formed
shortly after the BBC ONE television programme the
World's Greatest Elvis aired in 2007. The following
year Elite Tributes brought back the winner Shawn
Klush from the USA to headline in The World's
Greatest Elvis Tribute Artiste Concert at the Bolton
Arena. The record-breaking concert also
featured Elvis Presley's original band members the Sweet
Inspirations and drummer D.J. Fontana in the ultimate
tribute/reality concert.

In 2009 The World's Greatest Elvis Tribute
Concerts took place at the Manchester Apollo,
Harrogate International Centre and Cardiff St. Davids
Hall, again featuting Shawn Klush and the Sweet Inspirations
along with the UK's No 1 ETA Chris
Connor. Elite Tributes were also influential in bringing Shawn Klush to the
Edinburgh Corn Exchange allowing Shawn Klush to make his
debut in Scotland. The
high class concerts have since become recognised as
the most authentic Elvis concerts
ever witnessed in the UK. Elite Tributes are now to
branch out and intend to promote other types of tribute
concerts varying from rock to soul.
