Elvis Lives On Through Tribute Artist's "One Night With You" Concert

The Chennault Aviation & Military Museum is proud to welcome Elvis Presley Enterprises 2013 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Dean Z to the stage in Monroe, Louisiana. The public is invited to this limited ticket event on September 26th from 7:30 to 9:00 PM at Bayou Pointe Event Center at 1 Warhawk Way.

“One Night with You” is Dean Z’s tribute to musical legend Elvis Presley. Attendees will enjoy a fully immersive Elvis Presley experience provided by one of the world’s most popular tribute artists.

Dean Z has been emulating “The King” since age three. After performing in several shows of his own, Dean took off for Las Vegas at 17. Throughout the next 12 years, Dean performed in Vegas as well as paid tribute to “The Memphis Flash” across the country and world. Dean soon earned a spot with the World’s Greatest Live Tribute Show, “Legends in Concert,” and moved the headlining show to Branson, Missouri in 2007. In 2013, Dean sought the title of Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist, a contest sanctioned by Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. The contest involved hundreds of Elvis tribute artists competing in 29 preliminary events all over the world for an invitation to the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest™ Semi-Finals. At the semi-finals, Dean beat 28 other tribute artists and won the title. Since then, Dean has received The Heart of the King award in Las Vegas, toured with the Elvis Lives production, and honored Elvis and other legends through constant tours.

The Chennault Aviation and Military Museum is a 501c3 nonprofit. The bilingual “Way of a Fighter” Exhibit houses the country’s largest collection of General Claire Chennault artifacts and correspondence. Spanning all wars from WWI through Iraqi Freedom and representing all military branches, this expansive museum honors veterans, soldiers, and patriotism.

The museum takes an active role in veteran and community outreach. A free PTSD support group for combat veterans, led by a Vietnam Veteran with a PhD in Psychology, is hosted in the museum’s library twice a month. History is preserved through the recording of veteran oral histories which are given to the family as well as sent to the Library of Congress for preservation. CAMM has a Disabled American Veterans Association (DAV) chapter, The Gen. Chennault Flying Tigers, Ch. 51. The DAV certified Service Officers advocate for veterans and their families to receive earned benefits. DAV also provides a van service, providing free transportation to the VA medical center in Jackson, Mississippi.
