FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:Red Elvises Return to FITZGERALDS!$20 General Admission / Reserved Tables Available Igor Yuzov was born in Germany, raised in Ukraine and studied in Russia. He grew up in the former Soviet Union, where folk music was the norm and rocknroll was illegal. A rebellious streak, however, led him to seek out the forbidden music. As soon as it became possible, Igor left Russia for America with his FolknRoll band Limpopo and was personally greeted by Ronald Reagan. In 1993, Limpopo won Ed McMahons Star Search and their popularity began to blossom. In 1995, Igor dreamed that Elvis Presley came to him and told him to start playing rocknroll. Igor and his Russian friends became Red Elvises and gave street performances on Santa Monicas 3rd Street Promenade. As their crowds grew larger, the City of Santa Monica ordered them to discontinue their street performances. Evolving over the years, Igors music has been labeled Siberian Surf Rock which contains humorous lyrics and grooves that forces his audience to dance. Over the past 20 years, Red Elvises have constantly toured all over the world with occasional breaks to record new music and to participate in film and television projects.
