Cannon arts center to host Elvis tribute
Tom 1
Tom Duggin, a native of DeKalb County, will star in From Memphis To Vegas: A Tribute To Elvis Live at the Arts Center of Cannon County Oct. 22-23.

 

No individual entertainer in the history of music may have been more electrifying than the King of Rock ‘n Roll, the late Elvis Presley. And while there will never be another Elvis, his music will continue to live on through the many performers he inspired throughout his career and afterwards.

 

The Arts Center of Cannon County welcomes a little slice of the King in the form of Elvis Tribute Artist, Tom Duggin, who will bring "From Memphis To Vegas: A Tribute To Elvis Live" to the Arts Center stage. Duggin performs a 1970’s style Elvis concert, with the accompaniment of a full band, the legendary Rangers Quartet, one of the longest running group names in gospel music history, as well as the Soul Sistas, who all combine to bring to life the great hits of the Elvis live era. You’ll rock to classic oldies like Blue Suede Shoes, Teddy Bear, Don’t Be Cruel and Hound Dog, while rolling to great Elvis concert classics like Burning Love, Suspicious Minds and Polk Salad Annie. Elvis himself may have left the building, but his music never will!

 

A native of DeKalb County, Tom Duggin is a life-long Elvis fan, who has performed the King’s hits since he was a teenager. Duggin has performed in concert multiple times with Elvis’ 1970’s backup group, The Stamps Quartet, and has performed in several venues throughout the Southeast. While considering himself a "tribute artist" rather than an "impersonator," Duggin feels honored to carry on the legendary music of Elvis Presley. "There’s only one Elvis, and I’m not him," Duggin tells his audiences. "I don’t wear jumpsuits and sideburns, but rather focus on the remarkable music and the energy that truly made the Elvis Presley concert experience. It’s more than an honor for me to perform his great songs in front of his many, many fans."
