Elvis was in the house!

Elvis (Bob) was just wonderful. His interaction with my mom and those attending was great. Prior to our event he had us find out our mom's favorite Elvis songs, which he sang and he provided a customized scarf with our moms name on it that my mom will cherish forever. He sounded just like Elvis, so much so the manager of the restaurant came up to me later and asked if his lip synching was good. No lip synching, it was all real!

Price Range: $150-$600

Gig Length: 15 - 120 minutes

Languages: English, Spanish

What to Expect

After setting up the sound system, the music will begin, and Elvis will appear right there before your eyes to sing, play the guitar and piano along with backing tracks. Elvis will woo the women and make the men jealous as he interacts with the audience singing such classics as Jailhouse Rock, Suspicious Minds and Heartbreak Hotel. Elvis may just give out some of his extra scarves to some of the lucky ladies.

About

Bob plays the keyboard, bass, guitar and sings. He specializes in the imitation of the original artists. His resume of songs includes: Always, Sentimental Journey, In The Mood, Unforgettable, Pretty Woman, All Shook Up, Unchained Melody, She Loves You, and La Bamba. Bob also plays the harmonica, saxophone and the drums. Bob is a family man, living in Salt Lake City with his wife and four children.
He has been imitating Elvis for years now and sounds just like him.
Bob was born in West Germany before the wall came down. He also lived in the Netherlands, Maryland, Virginia, Argentina and Utah. He has been writing songs since he was nine. He studied piano for 2-1/2 years as a child, and later took up the guitar, bass, drums, saxophone and more. Audiences noticed how much he sounded like Elvis, so he picked up his dance moves and his speech, becoming Utah's best Elvis impersonator.

Additional Booking Notes

Elvis can entertain in just about any location. His acoustic performance is great for locations without access to power. His plugged-in performance includes a sound system and wireless headset and backing tracks to go along with his guitar (and piano if available). He plays and sings live, so enjoy Elvis Utah by Bob Shorten as he sounds just like the original Elvis Presley. Stages and lighting add to the effect if they are available at your event, but they are not necessary, depending on the size of the audience.
