DESCRIPTION:
INTRODUCING : AWARD WINNING ELVIS TRIBUTE ARTIST : ROY GADDY : VOTED - "PEOPLES CHOICE AWARD"Roy Gaddy was born in Bennettsville, S.C.. The son of the late Roy D. Gaddy Sr. and Juanita P. Tidwell of Polkton, N.C.. He grew up in Wadesboro, N.C. and spent some of his later years in Marshville, N.C. where he graduated from Forest Hills High School. Roy is a former law enforcement officer and has been involved in Christian Ministries for the last several years.
Roy began his career in 2004 as an "Elvis Tribute Artist". He is not only a Tribute Artist but he is also an Elvis fan. That is what makes his tribute so exciting. His goal is to carry on the "Elvis Legacy" to the next generation. He has been complimented by many people because of his singing ability as well as his looks. Roy bares a strong resemblance to Elvis. The fact is, he is distantly related to "The King". He is a man who adores helping others. He loves performing as an "Elvis Tribute Artist", (ETA) rather than an "Impersonator". He performs each and every show as a tribute to "The King", not to imitate or impersonate one of the greatest legends of all time. His show is performed with the utmost class and respect for Elvis and suitable for any age group. Roy loves doing shows for elderly people and doing fundraisers for children. This man has a big heart with a lot of love for others.
He loves putting smiles on peoples faces and making them feel special as Elvis did. Elvis always gave his best to his family, his friends and his fans. Roy does his best to live up to that example. Roy has made appearances in many different venues:
MEYMANDI AUDITORIUM / COLISEUM IN RALEIGH, N.C.
CABARRUS ARENA IN CONCORD, N.C.
THE SHERATON GRAND HOTEL IN NEW BERN, N.C.
THE WACHOVIA CENTER IN CHARLOTTE, N.C.
THE JESSE HELMS CENTER IN WINGATE, N.C.
LANCASTER COUNTY FAMILY CENTER IN LANCASTER, S.C. Plus countless other shows, private parties and business functions in North and South Carolina. Roy has also had the opportunities to perform with recording artist's,
Elvis Presleys backup Groups " The Imperials" and "The Stamps Quartet"
Gospel Music recording Artist Danny Funderburke, and The Carolina Boys, and The Pioneers. AND:
The 2003 European Country Music Artist of the Year - O.J. Hanssen
He has also helped Civic Organizations raise funds such as ;
D.A.R.E. DRUG ABUSE RESISTANCE EDUCATION PROGRAM
THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY, THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, and THE MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION. Roy also just recently won an award at the Fall 2005 "KING OF ROCK - N - ROLL" "TRIBUTE ARTIST CONTEST" held in Charlotte, N.C. and was voted "PEOPLES CHOICE AWARD" He was very humble but at the same time very excited to be recognized and win such an award. Roy continues to be a crowd pleaser everywhere.
You are sure to have a fantastic time with this Elvis Tribute Artist. It will be a performance you will never forget.

CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Roy was fantastic. Not just professionally, but personally also.
Everyone had a wonderful time and enjoyed the show very much. He was very accommodating with a few twist they threw out. I would recommend him to anyone and I have already talked with him about using him again sometime in the future. Thanks so much for a memorable birthday party my father will not forget.
