Windsor Elvis Fest 2008 will once again be a preliminary competition for the 2008 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest™! Based upon complimentary reports of our first festival in 2006, Windsor Elvis Fest was invited to be one of only 24 worldwide UETAC preliminary competition sites in 2007, and recently again, invited to be one of only 30 preliminary sites for the 2008 UETAC event in Memphis. For the first time in history, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. licensed a limited number of Elvis Tribute Artist (ETA) contests around the world. Twenty four preliminary contest venues were chosen, and a total of 434 ETA’s competed for a chance to move on to the contest in Memphis. The event was so successful, that they have decided to hold the contest again in 2008. Shawn Klush, from Pennsylvania, won the 2007 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest. Check out www.Elvis.com for more details on the event and the top 10 ETA’s. ExSpence Account Showband returns to Windsor in 2008! Windsor Elvis Fest is thrilled to confirm that the #1 rated Elvis tribute band in the world is returning to Windsor for the 3rd year in a row. Here’s what band leader Jason Parks has to say about us…..”Every aspect of this festival was incredible and it seemed like every other day something new was coming up that helped take the festival to the next level. We anticipate 2008 being even more successful.” The ExSpence Account Showband (EAS) was selected as the tribute band accompanying the top 10 finalists in the 2007 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist contest finals. This talented group of musicians and vocalists have the ability with their musicality and timing to make it seem like they have been playing for any Elvis Tribute Artist (ETA) for years. ETA’s and audiences alike just love them! 2007 Elvis Fest Press Coverage The reviews are in, and the 2nd Annual Windsor Elvis Fest was another smash success.
