B.Lowe|K.Mann - originally performed by Elvis Presley)
Performed by Steve Comilang

"Since my dad is an Elvis impersonator—or tribute artist, as he likes to say—I call any project I do in collaboration with my father Children of the King. It started as a 'zine, wherein I would tell embarrassing stories from childhood involving my father—stories like friends coming over to hang out and my dad dressing up like Elvis and singing and me always ending up behind the couch really, really embarrassed. I would include photos of him, photos of me, Elvis paraphernalia, etc. The project kept rolling and branched out to mini-films, accompaniments to Collingwood, performances, puppet shows, and now this karaoke thing for Empty Orchestra."
