Alex Winston - "Velvet Elvis"
Artist: www.alexwinston...
Location: Tempelhof airport
Alex Winston's "Velvet Elvis" is a lovesong dedicated to the kitsch images of Elvis Presley painted on dark velvet. These pictures of pop music's beloved icon have themselves been the topic of many pop songs including "Weird Al" Yankovic's "Velvet Elvis" and casting show favourite "Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles. Alex's little ode can therefore be understood as a token of love for pop music. This falls into place especially when you come to know that the classically trained singer, who used to practice Puccini etcetera for ten years, grew up in Detroit, the cradle of Motown and Techno, and also the home of Madonna and Eminem.
