There is no one like Michael O'Connor except for Elvis himself! The voice+ the moves + looks.= the ultimate Elvis package! Michaels has a plus 50 rating for a reason. If you want a real tribute to Elvis look no further listen for yourself and you can see why Michael is one of a kind. Update: Headlining at the House of Blues on August 16th 2008 Michaels own show tickets available at Ticketmaster. Feedback from one of Michael’s recent clients. Camilla wrote: We hired Michael His voice was incredible, it sounded like the real Elvis was in the room. He was the best Elvis Tribute Artist (ETA) we had ever heard or seen and recommend that for those who wish to see a fantastic ETA, they should forget Las Vegas and come to the East Coast to see Michael O'Connor, as he was outstanding in all aspects and we could not have asked for a better performer. Hello everybody we know your event is special to you and it is to Michael also. Michael treats all of his clients with the utmost respect and courtesy and anytime he is hired he finds it a great honor and never looks at as just a way to pay his bills. Michael’s number one goal is to make your event the most amazing experience possible. Michael is a true Elvis fan first and a tribute artist second. Elvis is very special to Michael and it shows when he performs. Hire a Tribute artist who performs from the heart and with class.
Michael O'Connor is the #1, Elvis tribute artist on the east coast and ranked in the top 20 worldwide. In 2007 Michael was the only Elvis tribute artist to sign a record deal for having the closest vocals to Elvis verified by computer match. Please take time to view our press kit. During all of Michael's performances he tosses out scarf's and teddy bears for the kids and adults. Michael will even stay after the performance to do a photo session with your guests at no additional charge! Michael is very down to earth and a true professional! Featured on Channel 3 news in 2007 two times and in many newspapers. And radio commercials.

Below is a more in depth bio but still not complete Michael has been performing since he was 10 for 31 years now and has performed over 1,200 times. Experts and Friends of Elvis agree there are many Elvis tribute artists but only one Michael O'Connor! Michael has opened for some of the top musicians in the world like the Lettermen, Chubby Checker and the #1 Beatles tribute band 1964 they were voted #1 by Rolling Stone Magazine and worked with many high profile corporate clients such as MBNA and Lockheed Martin. Michael became an Elvis fan at the early age of 6, and at age 10, Michael had started performing for charities. At age 20, Michael absolutely enjoys doing his Elvis tribute shows! (Quote from Michael) I feel honored and blessed to be able to pay tribute to a man whose popularity is as strong now as it ever was. I am a professional entertainer. I play a part. When I'm off stage, I am myself.
Michael has performed all around the country in Las Vegas at the Florida State Fair, and in Canada for crowds in excess of 17,000 people.
(quote from Michael) I do it because I love it, along with the pure joy it can bring to people. Two performances that I consider my favorites where both times I performed in Bethlehem PA at the Westgate mall for Elvis 25th and 30th Anniversaries both performances had over 1,000 people were in attendance. Michael has been performing Elvis shows for almost 31 years and in 2002 he was ranked in the top 20 Elvis tribute artists in the world by the 2nd Largest Competition sanctioned by Graceland the Collingwood Elvis Festival in Canada. Also in 2002 Michael also performed for the US Military, Federal Government, Sysco systems in times square NY and DuPont a few times.

Michael O'Connor made our 50's Dance a success. He was the greatest! I am a big fan of Elvis but never had the priviledge of seeing him personally but thanks to Michael,now I know what it would have been like. Michael sounded exactly like Elvis, even his outfit and jewelry was exactly like Elvis's. Michael is a GREAT caring person and I would definetly recommend him to all. Here are some comments from some of the people who attended, "He,s better than Elvis" , "Elvis is alive!!The voice of Michael O'Connor was phenomental. He has the whole routine down pat. We have seen some impersonators in Atlantic City and Vegas and Michael O'Connor was hands down the best". Thank you Michael for being you.

Michael OConnor went ABOVE AND BEYOND any expectations I had concerning his performance. He is the definition of a TRUE PROFESSIONAL!!! Michael recently performed for my wife at our wedding reception and completely blew everybody away with his performance. His interaction with our guests was EXCEPTIONAL - everybody was singing and dancing. I would HIGHLY recommend Michael to anyone who is a true Elvis fan. Not only is Michael an OUTSTANDING performer, he is a wonderful person, who really cared about making my wedding reception special and unique for my new wife. Michael's performance comes from his heart and it really shows in his performance and in the way he interacts with people. He is a AWESOME person and it was an honor to have met him. EVERYTHING about Michael, his performance, his passion and his unique caring personality as a person, is something I and my wife will never forget.

Michael performed at a birthday party we had for 8 friends, all turning 60 years of age this year. It was lots of fun and everyone enjoyed the show. He was quite the performer. He sang Elvis' rendition of "Dixie" and majory nailed the song. It was awsome!
