- Harvey’s show was perfect for our surprise 60th birthday party for my husband. His performance was excellent and he was very professional. All the guests were surprised and very pleased with the show which was his Elvis show. I would recommend Harvey and his wife (manager) for any occasion – it was good clean fun! Harvey is very personable and was willing to talk with the guests and worked with the hostess to carry out this great surprise party. It was awesome! Good job Harvey!

- I threw a "Vegas" themed retirement party for my Mother-in -law (who happens to be a huge ELVIS fan) , and Harvey was the suprise guest! He did such a wonderful job entertaining the crowd -young and old! My Mother-in -law said that she had "the time of her life!" Harvey was an ABSOLUTE hit! If you enjoy Elvis and/ or classic country music , then Harvey McFadden should be your choice for entertainment. He has a great voice and is a fantastic entertainer! FIVE STAR -PLUS!----

- Harvey was great. Our employees had the best time at the party and I appreciated how flexible he was in working with our schedule for the events. -- Jenny G, Abilene, TX, 12/15/2011
- He was so talented and seemed to really care about making it a fun moment for my mother. He was very attentive to all the details prior to the event and went above and beyond. I think I have made a new friend! Will totally be reccomending him to others, and for the price and the proximity to our location, he will definatly be invited back to other events! -- Janie V, Tuscola, TX, 1/17/2012
- Mr. McFadden worked with me on every detail of our party, I know I worried him to death but he was so nice and professional in everything. I just can't say enough about how good he was and how fun our party was. He interacted with all the guests and we had such a good time. I hope we can use him again and I will definitely recommend him to my friends... Thanks very much. -- Terry L, Abilene, TX, 1/29/2012
- Harvey Mcfadden exceeded all expectations. He was an excellent performer, professional, but very friendly. All of our party guests were so impressed and all wanted his card for future events. He WAS Elvis from the moment he arrived until he left. His sound system was great. We had his performance outside and it was windy, yet we could hear him perfectly. His costume was perfect. I would definitely book him again. -- KAY C, Midland, TX, 4/14/2012
