Bret's BIO
Bret Kaiser – Bret started singing rock and roll in 1976, after watching his younger brother Bruce, performing in a band called “FLAX”. When “the King” passed in ‘77, Bret’s aspirations to be a rock singer became reality. Bret’s musical career has taken him from New York to London, Sweden via Hollywood and back again. A veteran performer, Bret’s powerful vocals garnered him a gold record and 2 MTV music videos in 1984 when he fronted ‘80’s MTV metal band, Madam X. After tours in the U.S. & England, record label and management issues brought him back home to New York where, upon leaving Madam X in 1985, he formed KAISER. With a large regional following they re-emerged as the Bowry Boyz, touring the U.S. as a Budweiser Concerts band into the mid '90's. It was during this time touring that Bret made his first 'pilgrimage' to Memphis. Even then, while playing in a Rock club in Memphis, Bret sang several Elvis tunes despite fronting a metal band. Bret started doing his musical tribute to the King in 2007 to packed crowds and enthusiastic fans all over. Sometimes you can catch him in a departure performance that pays homage to the crooners called ‘An Evening with Bret Kaiser’ or in a bejeweled jumpsuit doing his ‘Forever Elvis’ tribute show or as the face and voice that fronts his Rock n Roll early fifty’s and sixty's band "The ’56tees".
