Jesse Garron’s Tribute to Elvis is ranked among the most respected acts in local and nationwide venues. Named “The Closest Thing to the King” by a reporter who saw him live back when he first started, the term stuck and to this day is reinforced by audiences after every show.

Garron possesses the voice, looks and charisma that made Elvis a superstar and draws audiences in from the minute he walks on stage. Jesse, backed by the Essential Elvis Tribute Band, uses his own vocals and style to recreate the music, the moves, and the stage show that endeared Elvis to so many.  The group performs songs that cross three generations of rock, pop, gospel and oldies music, so the act has universal appeal. This Vegas-style rendition is a consistent fan favorite that has earned a reputation for professionalism as well as countless standing ovations. Jesse is a natural front-man, interacting with the crowd at all times and signing autographs after the show.

Since his first performance in 1997, Jesse has grown to serve nationwide venues performing to sold-out audiences.  He has been invited to perform for the US Embassy in Algiers and even caught the attention of legendary Elvis guitarist, James Burton, after a show in Louisiana. Audiences who have seen Elvis in concert and other Elvis tribute shows are amazed by Jesse's portrayal.  Even those with personal ties to the Presleys are impressed by the likeness.  Jesse's show has drawn national media attention including billboards, radio interviews, television promotions and feature articles.
