From the USA TODAY:
ROSWELL, Ga. (AP) — A funeral home says one of Elvis Presley's backup singers has died in Atlanta.
Hugh Jarrett was 78.
Northside Chapel Funeral Directors & Crematory says the former member of The Jordanaires died Saturday at a hospital in Atlanta of injuries from an auto accident. The funeral is scheduled for Friday in Roswell.
Jarrett had lived in the Atlanta area since the 1960s after a music career in Los Angeles and Nashville, Tennessee. From 1954-58 he provided vocal backing to Presley as bass singer in The Jordanaires. He also sang on Presley's first tour after his military service ended in 1960.
The Nashville native last appeared with The Jordanaires in 1997 in Memphis.
Rest in peace Hugh...
TCB!
