Taking Care of Elvis – The King Is Back
Ben Portsmouth -The World’s Number One Elvis Tribute Artist.
Ben, a multi-talented musician, singer and songwriter had Elvis's DNA in his blood from an early age. His father was an avid Elvis fan and Ben grew up on a diet of Elvis songs. Having honed his musical talent Ben started his journey as an Elvis Tribute Artist in 2005 when he formed the "Taking care of Elvis" band. Audiences quickly realized that this was someone with a special talent.
He looked like Elvis, sang like Elvis and had an on-stage charisma that had audiences believing at times they were watching the King himself. This talent saw Ben rapidly rise through the ranks of Elvis Tribute Artists.
In August 2012, Ben made history when he won the Elvis Presley Enterprises “Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest which took place in Memphis, crowning Ben as the “Worldwide Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist”, the only artist from outside the USA to ever win this prestigious title from 2007 thru 2017.
Fans from all over the world declare Ben Portsmouth as the closest they have ever seen to Elvis Presley. Social media forums are overwhelmed with fans demanding his return to their country.
On this night, you will see the live performance that left David Letterman at a loss for words exclaiming, “Oh my God, Oh my God!” when Ben headlined his show in February of 2013.
Internationally renowned as one, if not The Best Elvis Tribute in the world today, Ben Portsmouth will bring his unique style and charisma and will show audiences why he is regarded as the best in the business.

Ben Portsmouth was AWESOME
by MrSpock23 on 11/8/15Margaritaville Resort Casino - Bossier CityRating: 5 out of 5Ben Portsmouth did a phenomenal impression of Elvis. He was very entertaining with his singing, dancing, and change of outfits. It was very well worth the money. . I liked that he gave out scarves and teddy bears like Elvis did. I want him to come back to Bossier City, LA so I can see him again. His band, Taking Care of Elvis, was also AWESOME. Thank you Margaritaville for bringing us a night with Elvis!
Ben Portsmouth was outstanding!
by Livebait64 on 11/5/15Margaritaville Resort Casino - Bossier CityRating: 4 out of 5I've seen many other first-class Elvis Tribute Artists many times. This was my first time to see Ben and he was awesome! Great looks, costumes, voice and moves! You won't be disappointed.
Elvis was in the Building
by AJay71 on 11/4/15Margaritaville Resort Casino - Bossier CityRating: 5 out of 5This was an incredible experience! Being that I'm too young to have ever gone to an actual Elvis Presley concert, Ben was the absolute next best thing. He led us through all the stages of his career, with costume changes and background video to complement the show. The band was wonderful as well. But what really blew me away about this young man is he's from Great Britain. So for him to be able to play instruments, sing and perform with Elvis' mannarisrms, and of course LOOK so much like him was just outstanding !! Well worth the money and our 6 hour drive to see him. Primarily, I brought my Mom to the show, but I enjoyed it just as much as she did!
Fantastic

This guy looks and sounds like Elvis and is from the uk he has done his homework. I will go and see him again when I can. Oh did I say how HOT this guy is lol thanks Ben for a great night.
