Congressman Cohen will guest host a special hour of his favorite Elvis records and share his thoughts on the impact of Elvis Presley on popular culture. He will also take a look at the influence the icon's music has had on Memphis, Shelby County, and the Tennessee-Mississippi-Arkansas tri-state communities.
Tune in July 1 beginning at 2 pm ET to hear SIRIUS Satellite Elvis Radio Third Anniversary Celebration LIVE From Graceland.
"Elvis was the most visible Memphian in the world. His musical contribution cannot be overstated," said Congressman Cohen. "He drew from his rural Mississippi roots and his experience in urban Memphis mixing together blues, gospel, and rockabilly into something new, something that survives and thrives to this day---Rock 'n' Roll. SIRIUS Elvis Radio ensures his legacy will never die."
At the end of the broadcast the Congressman, joined by Elvis Presley Enterprises CEO Jack Soden, will present a United States Congressional Proclamation declaring July 1st 'Elvis Radio Day' to life-long Elvis friend and SIRIUS Satellite Radio LIVE from Graceland host George Klein.
At 3 pm ET Elvis Radio DJs will host a special anniversary edition of the Elvis Radio Quiz Show broadcast live from Graceland Plaza in front of the SIRIUS studios. At 3:30 pm ET the DJs will also begin handing out the fourth in the series of five Elvis 30th Anniversary collector's buttons, "The '68 Comeback".
