Elvis Birthday Bash: A Tribute to the King in Southern California
The annual Elvis Presley birthday celebration in Southern California is set to take place at Venice West. Established in 1986 by James Intveld, Ronnie Mack, and Art Fein, the event will feature a lineup of rock, country, alt-country, gospel, blues, and rockabilly artists. The show has been a platform for various roots artists over the years, including The Blasters, Lucinda Williams, and James Intveld. This year's celebration, hosted by Deke Dickerson, Dave Stuckey, and Grey DeLisle, will showcase performances by a range of artists, each playing two Elvis Presley songs.
The event, known as the Elvis Birthday Bash, has been held at various venues in Los Angeles, including The World Famous Palomino Club, The House of Blues, and The Fonda Theatre. It has a history of supporting local charities such as the Los Angeles Mission and the Union Rescue Mission. This year, proceeds from the event will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association in memory of Art Fein, who passed away in 2025. The performers are eager to pay tribute to Fein, who played a significant role in the Elvis show and the Los Angeles roots music scene.
