Wink Martindale, Ronnie McDowell Pay Tribute To Elvis Presley With 'Heavenly Child,' To Air On SiriusXM

Wink Martindale

WINK MARTINDALE brings the legend of his pal ELVIS PRESLEY to life in the divine narrative, "Heavenly Child," a ghost-written account of The King's creation scored by RONNIE MCDOWELL.

Famed game-show icon and host of ENVISION NETWORKS' "The 100 Greatest CHRISTMAS Hits Of All Time," MARTINDALE delivers a quasi-biblical illustration of the late music legend's larger-than-life phenomenon. Following WINK's excerpt, "Heavenly Child" segues into a revival of "The King Is Gone" — the 1977 tribute that branded MCDOWELL as "The Voice of ELVIS," following the tragic death of an icon.

Last week,,MARTINDALE debuted the collaborative commemoration live on "GOOD MORNING AMERICA," and the piece is also scheduled to air on SIRIUSXM's ELVIS RADIO at the start of 2019.

McDOWELL crafted the album art for "Heavenly Child" with an original painting of a young GLADYS LOVE, following the birth of her son.
