If Igor and Red Elvises aren't in the middle of a tour, they are getting ready for the next one — this is a group that is constantly in motion and consistently evolving. Singer, songwriter, guitarist, and showman extraordinaire Igor Yuzov is perpetually globe-trotting, and in the process he has found scores of wildly talented, entertaining musicians to bring into the fold of this increasingly international party band. Red Elvises started as a Russian group, playing what they dubbed "Siberian Surf Rock." Since then the band has included musicians from many other countries, including the US, Israel, Puerto Rico, and Bulgaria. Everyone who performs with them for any length of time brings something different both energetically and musically. At various times, shows have included keyboards, accordions, sax, clarinet, trumpet, flute, banjo, mandolin, and tuba. Old and new fans alike can expect to be surprised at shows again and again, but the roots of Red Elvises remain the same: Igor's unique brand of humor combined with guitar-based rock 'n roll.
