Description

A Tribute to Elvis starring Steve Brandes with or without The Easy Street Band

Steve has been performing his tribute to Elvis for 16 years and is quickly becoming a premier tribute artist in the metropolitan St. Louis area due to his astounding, pure vocal ability and high energy shows. Steve has amazing range and the more operatic the song, the stronger his vocals become. Steve's true passion for Elvis' music lies in the latter years of Elvis' career when he was known for hitting the "big" notes, making the audience "feel" his words and sending fans into a state of frenzy or bringing them to tears. The uncanny resemblance of Steve's vocal to that of Elvis' will amaze you. You can close your eyes and be taken back to when Elvis was performing that same song. Steve can also perform those fast tempo hits that Elvis was known for in the earlier part of his jumpsuit years. The show is packed with high octane energy! Just when you think Steve is finished with a song, he brings you right back in for another round of hip gyrating, side stepping moves that only Elvis could have made famous. Always the professional, Steve is true to his art and fully respects Elvis' legacy by wearing authentic replica jumpsuits and performing as a tribute artist. Steve is well studied in the authenticity of Elvis' moves, spoken words, stage performances and obviously, his vocal ability. Steve has been featured in Soap Opera Magazine with the stars of Days of Our Lives and has performed in many large venues in St. Louis. He is available for performances with instrumental tracks or with his band, The Easy Street Band.

Feedback

  • There are not enough words to describe how wonderful of an experience he gave our guests at our wedding reception. I had been in the entertainment business for over 20 years and have dealt with numerous entertainers and Steve is one of the best. I plan on having him at some other events. If anyone has any questions about Steve feel free to contact me at my office 618-545-0421. I would love to be his agent and can state if you want the ultimate Elvis experience the look, the sound, the moves and the pleasure to work with a true professional that will ensure that he has all the details covered than Steve Brandes is the one to hire.

  • In every way, this young man met and exceeded my expectations. He LOOKS like Elvis. He SOUNDS like Elvis. He was perfect in every way. -- David W, Farmington, MO, 7/5/2008
  • He came to my Grandmother's 70th birthday party, as a surprise, and she was definitely surprised. She couldn't believe her eyes. She really enjoyed him and his songs and had a lot to say even after he was gone. Everyone else very much enjoyed him as well. They are even planning to go and see him in about a week. -- Nichole J, Granite City, IL, 7/5/2008

  • Very satisfied. He seemed to do everything he could to make it an enjoyable birthday for my wife and her family and friends. He worked very well in the small setting of less than fifty people. -- Mike B, Edwardsville, IL, 8/17/2008
  • It turned out to be a perfect day on October 4, 2008. Everyone was having a great time during Mr. Brandes' performance. Steve was very courteous, nice and it was a grand tribute to have him there as a part of our celebration of my renewal vows and my sister Eileen's 50th wedding anniversary. Thank you to Mr. Brandes for a great night and for giving us the opportunity to enjoy your Elvis tribute. Best wishes. Kathy Haring -- Kathy H, Glen Carbon, IL, 10/4/2008
