    Viva Elvis - The Album is a 21st-century celebration of Elvis and his music, featuring the voice of the King in a whole new context.

    The undisputed King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis Presley remains one of the most iconic and powerful forces in popular culture. "Before Elvis," said John Lennon, "there was nothing." After Elvis, the world looked and sounded different. With a swivel of his hips and the power of his voice, Elvis broke down barriers and shattered the status quo.

    Viva Elvis re-imagines the King's own vocal performances in a broad variety of new musical settings. This new sound echoes Elvis's own versatility and ability to master all musical genres, from Delta blues to rockabilly, from raw soul to Gospel, from Southern folk to Vegas pop.

    Viva Elvis is the result of a partnership with Cirque du Soleil and Elvis Presley Enterprises. It's Elvis like you've never heard him before!
