_________________________________________

The gospel music of Elvis has a magic that has stood the test of time, from his childhood, til long after his death. It is still selling off the music shelves, still being played, still being sung, still being remembered. The phenomenon Elvis created, his music and soul, will never die as long as there are people whose memories include him.

Take a stroll through through the sounds of the past with Jim Anderson as he recreates the music of Elvis' gospel songs, and pays tribute to the two kings; the King of Rock and Roll, and the King of Kings.

Take time for a little listen on Jim's music page - samples are available. Have a peek at a few photos, visit his website, send a message.

We're glad you stopped by!

The Music of GospelElvis

2009-11-17T01:31:00.000-08:00

Listen to music clips from some of the CDs of GospelEvlis' music. The sounds of gospel, from old time hymns sung with an Elvis flair, to the upbeat sounds of songs like I Believe, and I, John. These are short music bytes, but long enough to give you a taste for more.

GospelElvis CDs can be purchased online at his website GospelElvis.com, or by contacting us by email or telephone and they are always in evidence at any concert or event where you find Jim (aka GospelElvis), so if you prefer you can buy one (or two, or one of each) in person.

For over thirty years he has proclaimed the good news of the gospel through music of various styles such as traditional, sacred, country and western, gospel rock, contemporary gospel and worship music. All of his music promotes family values.

His style is both entertaining and innovative using unusual locations and props, such as boats, motorcycles, limousines and horses.

Singing to audiences of thousands across North America, Jim Anderson has found his music being played around the world including Europe, Africa, the United Kingdom, Australia and China.

Over the years he has released three recordings, “911 for Jesus”, the title song of which Jim wrote, and “I Believe” an album of eleven early gospel songs previously recorded by Elvis. The newest release contains eleven of Elvis’ most popular inspirational, gospel and power songs and is titled “Follow That Dream”.

With his powerful voice and remarkable stamina Jim has been performing Gospelelvis since 1998. He performed for seven weeks at Christian Retreat in Bradenton, Florida and also for Christian Retreat in Strawberry Lake, Minnesota for two weeks. Jim has also done concert tours in North Carolina, Michigan and all over Canada from Quebec to Saskatchewan as well as lake cruises.

Jim has also appeared on television in Hastings, Michigan, “It’s a New Day” in Winnipeg, Manitoba and “100 Huntley Street”. He has also appeared many times at three Circle Square Ranches across Ontario and also those in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, having performed charitable fund raising concerts.

As well as television appearances Jim has done live performances on radio in Orillia, Kitchener and North Bay Ontario and syndicated performances across North America.

Jim has been the Gospel Events Co-ordinator, since 2002, for the Collingwood Elvis Festival, the largest of its kind in the world, as well as performing at and conducting Gospel Shows at the Orillia Rock and Roll Show and the King of Kitchener Festival.

Jim has several authentic Elvis stage costumes of the finest quality, as well as a stretch Cadillac Limousine. His sound system is state of the art.

He has also been well received at numerous fairs, festivals, rock and roll shows, weddings, community events, First Nations celebrations and parades. This man is versatile, to say the least.

Calendar & Events

2009-11-17T01:27:00.000-08:00

GospelElvis is available for special occasions and events and is no stranger to travel. His work has taken him to the far north of Canada, to the southern US and all points in between.

He's as happy working a special anniversary or birthday party as he is a large-scale concert or special events for churches, festivals or parades, and his professional costuming, attitude and sound will take you from a rockin' good time to the worship of gospel and back again.

Jim loves to entertain because it brings a smile to the heart of his listeners, and because it's one more outlet to share the music that Elvis loved - the sounds and songs of the Gospel. And, while Jim specializes in the gospel music of Elvis' heart, he transitions easily to between the different styles of Evlis' sounds. Special requests can be accommodated.
