Booking An Elvis Tribute San Francisco

By Carolyn Young


When putting on a show a lot of people will decide to book a tribute singer and impersonator. A very popular choice for this kind of entertainment is an Elvis tribute San Francisco. A great many of these Presley performers can be hired with different styles and types of show.

Two main types of Elvis tribute act are available in San Francisco, CA and some thought should be given when deciding on booking one. The majority of vocalists will sound like the man himself and have spent many years refining their set. In some cases the artist will also look like the king and these are usually more expensive to hire than just a sound alike.

A little research should be done prior to selecting a tribute act to make sure it is the correct type of artist. Singers will be happy to discuss the requirements of the client and tailor the act accordingly and advising on set lists and clothing. Prices will vary depending on the length of time on stage and what sound, light and stage equipment is needed for the venue.

For approximately 500 dollars a singer can be booked to turn up dressed as Elvis with backing music to perform a few songs. If as in many case a full gig is to be staged with musicians and instruments the price can run into many thousands of dollars. The more professional full band acts will often bring their own PA systems and lighting rigs and the engineers to work on the day or night.

The best option when hiring an act is to go through a reputable show business agent to guarantee everything runs smoothly. Many of the agencies will be able to offer a range of acts to suit and also be able to provide everything needed for the gig. It is also worth booking through an experienced agency as all the necessary permits and paperwork will be taken care of.

When booking a tribute artist online a few things should be taken into account before making a final decision. After selecting the singer it is advisable to get in touch with them and have a chat about what is needed for the event and any questions answered. Because Presley changed his appearance so much over the years it is important to choose the closest one that is available for the particular performance.

After selecting the chosen performing artist clients should do a little research on past shows that the singer has performed. Show business agents and internet booking sites will be more than happy to share information and feedback for their stable of artists. Also if any videos or audio is available it is well worth watching these and having a listen to help with the final choice of which act to book.

If a specific Elvis impersonator act is to be booked it should be done well in advance as many of these performers may be committed for months or even years. If the performer is on the competition scene he may also spend a lot of time travelling the world. Some care should also be taken when hiring a venue and checks should be made on what equipment and permissions are needed to host the show.
