Danzig To Release “DANZIG Sings ELVIS” April 17
Punk Rock Icon, DANZIG will be releasing his highly anticipated new album “DANZIG Sings ELVIS” on April 17 with Cleopatra Records. After crediting Elvis Presley as one of his greatest influences, DANZIG has wrapped up a full-length album, that will also be available on vinyl. While recording this album, it was important to not only include some well-known Elvis recordings, but also some that were not hits, but influential nonetheless.

More About DANZIG:
He is the founder of the bands Misfits, Samhain and Danzig. He owns the Evilive record label as well as Verotik, an adult-oriented comic book publishing company. As a singer, he is noted for his baritone voice and tenor vocal range; his style has been compared to those of Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison, and Howlin’ Wolf. Danzig has also cited Bill Medley as a vocal influence.
In a 2015 Rolling Stone interview, Danzig shared that Presley was among his chief musical influences. “Elvis is actually kind of how I got into music,” Danzig said at the time. “When I was a kid, I was cutting school pretending I was sick and I would lie at home watching old movies, and Jailhouse Rock came on with Elvis. I was like, ‘I want to do this. This is great.’ And that’s how I veered to music.”
Along with releasing 11 albums and 28 singles, Danzig has written songs for legends such as Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison. Danzig has also created his own record label, Evilive. Fans know that Danzig’s immeasurable talent and striking shows keep the crowds wanting more.
