Adelaide, Australia – 20 Oct 2023: The power funk-pop sensation and renowned South Australian singer-songwriter, Dino Jag, marks the 1st anniversary of his chart-topping hit “Shake A Leg Like Elvis” with a special treat for fans worldwide. The previously unreleased music video, Produced & Directed by Jordan Lennon, showcasing the iconic moves of Mark Anthony – recognized as one of the world’s premiere Elvis Tribute Artists – is set to be unveiled in celebration of the song that took Australia and global charts by storm.
While originally intended as a grander production, life and scheduling challenges led to the preservation of only the raw, authentic test footage shot with Mark Anthony. This exclusive footage was captured against the backdrop of a billboard featuring the single’s artwork – a playful take on the iconic “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign.
“Sometimes, the universe has its way of making things special,” says Dino Jag. “The raw energy and spirit captured in this test footage are serendipitous, and sharing this with fans on our 1st anniversary feels just right.”
The world-class performer Mark Anthony, recognized by Elvis Presley Enterprises and Graceland, adds an authentic touch that’s bound to resonate with Elvis and Dino Jag fans alike. Anthony’s global recognition is not just in name; from winning the title of the grand champion ultimate Elvis tribute artist for the South Pacific to being placed in the top 5 Elvis tribute artists globally, his accolades are a testament to his unparalleled skills.
Dino Jag’s “Shake A Leg Like Elvis” had a whirlwind of success during its release, hitting #1 as Australia’s most streamed & downloaded song on PlayMPE Charts, #2 on the National AIR Chart, and debuting at #7 on the iTunes TOP 40 AUSSIE POP SONGS, among other accolades.
Vents Magazine described the song as “a memorable musical joyride,” and with this video, fans can experience that ride anew. The track, inspired by a phrase from Dino Jag’s father, serves as a metaphor for not holding back and liberating one’s unique self, a message that is perfectly embodied in the carefree spirit of Elvis Presley.
The forthcoming video promises not just a nostalgic trip back to the rock and roll dreamers of yesteryears but a bridge to the modern-day celebration of music, artistry, and unbridled passion. Join Dino Jag in this joyous celebration and shake a leg as we revisit a song that defined an era. The video drops Friday 20th October.
