This is Elton! Rus Anderson is Elton John’s official body double for his Farewell Yellow Brick Road world tour launch promo video. Picked by the man himself, Rus performs as a young Elton John in The Rocket Man Show – driving a night of Elton’s greatest hits, with spot on vocals & fierce piano playing. Rus painstakingly recreates an early Elton concert with gorgeous, colorful & flamboyant costumes actually worn by Elton – including boots, glasses & jumpsuits from 1973, as well as his sparkly tuxedo from 1984! With all the classic young Elton antics, audiences are in for a night of nostalgia, singing, laughing & participation.
Remember when rock was young? You will after the show!

- “Absolutely outstanding. Rus Anderson & the band were incredibly talented. The sound system, stage props, and costume design were Broadway quality.” — John C.
- “It was amazing! His energy just doesn’t stop. It took me right back to the 70s. The band is fantastic, so much talent. I can’t wait for next year.” — David H.
