Doug Charles as Elvis


Doug Charles is a professional ETA bringing a high level of energy to his show. Elvis was a great entertainer, a great singer, but more importantly a great showman, from dazzling bejewelled jumpsuits, swinging arm and hip shaking dance moves with the odd Karate Kick thrown in for good measure, and whilst no one can match the King for originality Doug Charles brings many elements of that showmanship to his show and loves to get in with the audience, you never know you may even be lucky enough to receive one the scarves Doug gives out at his show just like Elvis did  or even a small teddy bear when he sings "that" song.... you know the one !!!



An Elvis Impersonator or ETA's bring a higher level of entertainment, costumes and music to the audience. They are different to musicians just singing Elvis songs who more often than not, whilst still singing Elvis well, don't dress up and really get into the show.

Great Elvis Impersonators are ETA's. They really take the show to a new level, from specialised hair pieces,  jewellery donning the kings fingers, replica jumpsuit costumes that match they very same ones that Elvis wore on stage, to giving away scarves during a slow song and wearing those classic gold or silver framed sunglasses, a big effort is made to ensure you know this is an Elvis Tribute Show and your performer really does channel the kings music. 


Doug Charles makes every effort to ensure a great night of entertainment is had by all.




Neil Diamond by Paul McKenna


Paul is an accomplished singer song writer and live guitarist that has been performing for many decades and in recent years has been performing a great Neil Diamond Tribute show singing all those favourites and classics.


Paul  now works with Doug Charles as part of the Diamond & The King Show.
