Happy New Year from Memphis & Mississippi! And in the words of John Lennon: Let’s hope it’s a good one. Elvis will be front and centre for Memphis in 2022 with the 45th anniversary of his passing and the launch of a new feature film in June starring Tom Hanks as Colonel Parker, Elvis’ legendary manager.
