Fresh from sell out shows at The O2, Albert Hall and main-stage
appearances at both the legendary Download Festival and the iconic
Glastonbury Festival, the world’s best – and only – Elvis Themed
Nirvana tribute act ‘ELVANA’ have today announced their debut
Australian tour. From Seattle to Mississippi, to the bowels of
Disgraceland, ELVANA’s Australian tour is set to raise music icons
from the dead; rock & Roll will finally collide with grunge and the
1950’s will well and truly come alive as Elvis replaces Kurt and
Nirvana get a front man wrapped head to toe in red leather and blue
sequins. What started as little more than a joke, with four friends
from North-East England forming an Elvis fronted Nirvana tribute act
for a fancy dress party, has now snowballed into a completely unique
live experience that has taken the world by storm. Comprising of
Elvis, Danny Cobain, Rob Novoselic and Bobby Grohl, ELVANA takes
audiences on a journey through Nirvana’s catalogue whilst splicing
in grunged up sections of the king of Rock & Roll's finest moments,
culminating in an audible orgasm of overdrive & old school Rockabilly.
It smells like teen spirit, tastes like fools gold and sounds like
nothing you’ve heard before! "Ladies and gentleman of
Australiashire! You are about to witness something you've never ever
seen before... In a good way! We couldn't be any more excited to bring
our lil ol' show down under and boy are we gonna have one hell of a
time!? Come as you are, mate." Said Elvana frontman “Elvis. The
world has seen Nudist Priest (a hairy, naked version of Judas Priest),
they tolerated Tragedy, the all-metal Bee Gees tribute act and smiled
politely at the concept of Okilly Dokilly, a Ned Flanders themed band,
but fans of rock & roll haven’t yet experienced the polished (but
intensely sweaty) live performance of ELVANA; a journey through
Nirvana’s catalogue with the addition of grunged-up sections of
Elvisí finest moments, culminating in a mega mash-up of hits from two
of the world’s most acclaimed acts. Kicking off in Perth in May
2020, ELVANA are set to get Australian audiences All Shook Up, as they
take their unique blend of 1950’s inspired grunge-rock antics around
the country for the very first time, with shows planned for Perth,
Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. 18+ Event, Under 18's
admitted with Parent or Legal Guardian.
