Headline Promotions, Press & PR work for Elvis in the UK

Leading U.S. Elvis tribute star performer Jack Smink, and his production company Lightning Strikes Twice Productions, have appointed Basingstoke marketing and public relations consultancy, Headline Promotions Press & PR, to represent their media interests in the UK.

Initially focussing on a 2007 UK tour, Headline Promotions will develop and implement an integrated marketing, promotions, PR and advertising campaign working with Jack’s management and support agencies.

John Hicks, Managing Director of Headline Promotions Press & PR, said, “Jack is arguably the top Elvis tribute in the world and his shows are awesome, not a word I would use lightly but his acclaim is well-deserved.”

Encouraged by his loyal fan and friend, Sir Jimmy Savile (pictured), Jack has visited the UK on a regular basis. His latest visit is to conclude negotiations to appear in a major music festival and to undertake preliminary work on the UK tour. During his visit he has appeared on a number of radio stations including being interviewed by Jeremy Beadle.

“Headline Promotions have an enviable reputation in the live music and late night entertainment world and John’s experience within the leisure industry excited me so I am delighted to have this opportunity to work with him.” said Jack.

The UK tour will include dates with Jack performing solo but there will also be dates with his live 19-piece band. Details will be published on his website www.lstproductions.com.
