Anthony Todd Hopkins BIO
Born in Fort Worth,Texas and now living in Mineral Wells Texas. Anthony grew
up a Elvis fan mainly because his mother is a huge Elvis fan and as a young
boy grew up listening to the music of Elvis Presley in his mothers ceramic
shop during the 70's, mostly 8 track tapes of course.
A musician from an early age learning to play piano, guitar and drums, he
found a love for drums mostly spending the 80's and 90's playing music
ranging from Polkas to Heavy Metal but it all came back to Elvis Presley.
Anthony first visited Graceland in 1983 at the age of 13 and finally got
to return during Elvis week in 2002 and that's all it took for
Anthony to give up the drums after 20 years and want to be an Elvis Tribute Artist.
Even though he never would participate in karaoke bars he began to perform
for several private parties. Anthony was encouraged by the crowds response
and his family and friends continued to urge him not to quit.
Anthony gave it a shot even though limited on performance moves after
recovering from back surgery he continued to visit Memphis. During his visit
to Elvis Week 2004,2005,2006,2007 he sang under the tent for the many Elvis
fans in attendance and also recorded a few songs at the famous Sun Studio.
Even though Anthony is new to the ETA scene and has only just started, he
hopes to rapidly improve and give the other ETA's someone to watch for.
There will never be another Elvis Presley and Anthony is happy keeping the
love and respect for the man to whom he pays Tribute!
