(Doug Welch)
For the fourth year running, by popular demand, Doug
Welch is back at the Rhumbelow Theatre with “TRILOGY”, a Rocktainment Production which covers the three major
musical eras of Elvis Presley.
Welch is backed by his very accomplished band MSG, comprising
Wade Wight (keyboards and backing vocals); Ollie Hart (piano); Jill Murraybrown
(bass guitar); Graham Buckle (drums); Andy Turrell and Bruce Boome (lead guitar);
Tammy Saville and Marion Loudon (female vocals) with Kirsty Madgin (saxophone).
This excellent 90 minute performance will include
favourites such as That’s Alright Mama, Blue
Suede Shoes, All Shook Up, Hound Dog, Love Me Tender, Heartbreak Hotel, Are You
Lonesome Tonight and Suspicious Minds,
to name a few.
With his costume changes, Welch will portray Elvis in the
50’s, Elvis in the 68’ Comeback Special and the ultimate, Elvis in Las Vegas! Based
in Ballito, Welsh is a well accomplished ETA (Elvis Tribute Artist) who has
performed country wide.
“Trilogy” is for
all ages and a show not to be missed as it pays tribute to one of the greatest
musical icons of the 20th Century.
