This summer, Elvis is in the building! Elvis Presley tribute artist Ruben Castillo appears at the Toms River branch of the Ocean County Library for “The King – Aloha and Beyond: 1973-1977” on Wednesday, Aug. 3 at 6:30 p.m.
The program pays tribute to the King’s final years, including highlights from the Aloha from Hawaii concert, The Jungle Room Sessions, and Elvis’s final show broadcast on CBS. He died on Aug. 16, 1977, at age 42.
Popular songs from that era include “My Way,” “Moody Blue,” “Polk Salad Annie,” “Way Down,” “Hurt” and “American Trilogy.”
Castillo has more than 30 years of experience as a musical theater actor in community and regional productions.
