KC Ryder
International vocalist covering the 50's & 60's KC Ryder has been much adored in many countries
since starting his career in the early 70's with a wild Rock n Roll Band.
He has been accredited to sounding like Richie Valens, Billy Fury, Eddie Cochrane.... all which had him selling out shows and filling clubs
with an act that had them bopping in the aisles, screaming for more and a huge following of fans.
Over the years, KC worked as lead vocals with other bands before finally going solo.
It was during a charity event he was asked to do, for Elvis Presley Fan Club (then) Enterprises, doing his rock n roll songs that his Elvis Tribute show
was officially born. During his second set, the requests were non-stop to sing Elvis.
Unknown to KC at the time Paul Jarvis was in the audience and was amazed at the vocal talents he was hearing.
Chats were had; deals made
and the touring with the Elvis Show started with Paul being his manager for a short while.
This led to many great experiences including meeting Charlie Hodge, Scottie Moore, Chuck Berry & DJ Fontana....to name but a few.
Also TV appearances in Drama, talent shows and more from one of which his singing voice was used as an over for a TV advert.
His brother - who is now a USA & International Comedian and Agent - extended KC's meetings with other great singers, and the countries
to which he was booked for his shows both with the bands & his solo show.
Whilst Elvis is still very close to his heart.. performing purely Elvis wasnt something he wanted to continue and so eventually left EPFC
going back to what he loved most which is performing the fantastic songs from the Great artists of the 50's & 60's...
......AND still including Elvis......
A REAL SHOWMAN, KC HAS NEVER YET LEFT AN AUDIENCE UNSATISFIED
