Indian Elvis is Bal Johal, a Derby-born vocalist performing his Elvis tribute since 1997. A real live vocal, a self-contained show with full PA and lighting, and a set built around your event.
Born and bred in Derby, Bal grew up listening to his favourite artist, Elvis Presley. He started out in small pubs and social clubs across the East and West Midlands, where audiences gave him the name Indian Elvis, and went on to play bigger and better venues.
It’s more than the look. Bal is a serious vocalist with a natural talent, a wide vocal range and real power in his voice. And off stage he’s very much a family man, a proud husband, father and grandfather, which is why his shows feel like a party everyone’s invited to.
Read Bal's story"I always find the premier Elvis tribute acts will always want to show something more, as they will have the vocal range to express themselves."
Mark Ritchie, The Stage magazine
