In 2003 I was invited to join Kent’s annual Elvis show at Parksnäckan, Uppsala. That year was the second year of the show, and I’ve been a part of it since then. It’s not the usual kind of look-a-like sound-a-like Elvis show, but more of an in depth look into Elvis’ music and life. For many of us involved in the project it has been a great way of learning about Elvis and a way to discover him beyond the most famous hits and stories. Me and Kent have also done a few smaller projects with a duo or trio setting.
