EDDIE Daniels is a vocal impressionist with a love of both Elvis and Roy Orbison and a knack of bringing their best-loved songs back to life.
“The Big O is recognised for his powerful distinctive voice, complex operatic compositions and dark emotional ballads,” he said.
“Elvis Presley once called Roy “the greatest singer in the world” and others have declared him a songwriter who was way before his time.”
The audience will re-live the magic of Roy Orbison through the voice of Eddie Daniels.
And then he turns his attention to Elvis – circa 1973.
“The Elvis Live from Hawaii, beamed around the world via satellite,” Eddie said.
“He re-created himself that night, performing a combination of his rockabilly hits and beautiful ballads.
