CLIENT FEEDBACK:  

This is the 3rd time Stingray has filled my ballroom, this time with 360 people from all over the tri-state area. The reaction has been unbelievable. This guy puts on show like no other. He is hands down the best Elvis tribute artist there is. He did three one hour shows withn his ten piece band in a 5hr period and everyone was on their feet at the conclusion of each performance. I hear people ask him why he doesn't do those contests they have and the reason is, he doesn't need to. Anyone who sees him knows it just can't be any better than this. To potential clients I say don't waste your time with anyone else. Stingray rocks like only the King himself could.

IT WAS A NIGHT MY FAMILY, OFFICE STAFF, FRIENDS, AND I WILL REMEMBER FOR A LIFETIME. THIS WAS A ***** EVENING. KEEP ON ROCKIN' THANKS STINGRAY DR D

This is the second time i have used Stingray (this time for our Classic car show) and i have to say that he is simply the best from his incredible voice to his dead on Elvis look and movements. I had people coming from all over NY and NJ to see this phenomenal performer. it's absolutely erie how close this guy is to the real thing and i had several customers tell me they have seen everyone from Vegas to A/c and nobody comes close to this guy. So if you want a true Elvis experience hire this oustanding talent.

If I could give Stingray all 10's I would, 5's just arent enough. He is the most pleasant, accommodating gentleman I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Stinray exceeded all my expectations! My son is a HUGE Elvis fan, so I hired Stingray to perform at my son's birthday party, he played all my sons favorite songs, wore my sons favorite Elvis jumpsuite, included the children in the show. He captivated the entire party, from the youngest of children to the oldest of Family members. I would most highly reccomend him for any party. Every song was song perfectly, and the children loved the glasses and Teddy bears he gave them! Sincerely Donna Webber,Long Island N

Stingray was the best! I would not believe anyone could sound so much like Elvis. He was great with my family and friends involving them in the fun and his performance. Ray was very sociable and accomodating to requests. I am recommending him to everyone. He should be #1 in the Elvis impersonator competition. Thanks so much for a great job! On a scale of 1 - 10 he deserves a 15!

Excellent show. By far the best entertainment at party I have ever been at. Stingray, showed up early and was very cordial and polite. Looks just like Elvis! We discussed how his show would be performed and he actually allowed me to pick how he would enter the party. Was very accomodating as he delayed his show long enough to allow more of my guests to arrive to enjoy it. He was fabulous not only with the elder and the middle age folks in attendance but with the kids as well. Gave out scarf's, teddy bears and of course the Elvis type sun glasses. He joked with the audience and got everyone to partake of his show. I will hire him again. After he left, I was given a lot of praise for having him especially from the older generation who never saw Elvis in person. They felt his voice, clothing and yes his Elvis like moves were terrific and exciting. He brought back many, many great memories from their past. Again, great show and thank you. Greg M Ocean NJ

Stingray was incredible. He packed the house with over 350 people and gave them a show they will be talking about for a long time. It's one thing to dress up like Elvis and (there are a lot of hacks out there) But it's a whole different story to able to sing like this guy can. Stingray was electrifying and dynamic in his performance. His band was absolutely as good as it gets. He had the people dancing and laughing and mezmorized with his stage presents. And when it was over the people wanted more and stood on their feet with a rousing ovation for this one of a kind show. If you ever have the opportunity, I strongly suggest you see this show because there is nothing like it. We hope to able to have him back again and again and again. Thanks gigmasters,I do not know where you found this guy but I with hundreds of others are glad you did.

Stingray was the easiest person to work with from day 1. His show was outstanding; I had people on their way home from the Christmas party calling me saying how much they loved his show. Stingray had the crowd into the show even the kids were dancing all over the place. I have to say HONESTLY I looked for the perfect Elvis impersonator for (4) months and I have to say Stingray is the best hands down, AWESOME. Bill

Stingray was extraordinary! He not only has talent and professionalism, he was extremely accommodating and a wonderful person all together! His performance was more then one could ask for, (even a one year old danced her little heart out to him), he has a gifted voice and the wonderful ability for impersonating Elvis. My guess wouldn’t stop talking about him, and this morning, I had quite a few emails and calls on the whole event and each and everyone commented on how wonderful a show he put on, of course the questions of how much and where did I find him were also asked. Besides being a showman, Stingray has a very pleasing way about him, he is very easy to talk to, and deal with. He also has a fantastic soundman. There isn't much more to be said then enjoy yourselves, hire him and you will not at all be disappointed. Marion H. Wingdale, NY

First and foremost I have to say that I was lucky enough to see Elvis at his very best live in Las Vegas and in Madison Square garden. I never thought I would see anything close to him. I have seen all the tribute Artists from Las Vegas to Atlantic city and none of them can touch this performer. Stingray from the moment he took the stage and sang his first note had the audience entranced. He has an incredible voice and passion in his singing that I only witnessed once before and that was the King himself. From his interaction with the audience to his command of all era's of Elvis's music,Stingray provided an evening of pure entertainment that none of the people in attendance will ever forget. I was very impressed with watching Stingray sing live on MSNBC TV and thought that was incredible, but it was nothing like seeing him in person performing all of Elvis's hits. If you want the best take it from me this is as close as it gets to seeing the real thing. Bob C

Stingray was outstanding! My wedding was on October 8th and it is almost a month later and people are still raving and talking about him. He was terrific with all of my 200 guests. He put on a show that knocked their socks off. He sang and involved them in the show. He took time to take pictures with all of them. I thought he was going to be good but he was even better then what I thought he would be. He sounded just like Elvis. He was very accomodating and professional. He is an extremely talented performer. My wedding of course was memorable and special to me, and Stingray will definately be one of the moments that will always stand out when I think of the day. Everyone at my wedding enjoyed him so much, that people who didn't even go to my wedding are talking about him because of what they heard. He really was amazing. My dad is an Elvis fan and I can still see the big smile on his face when Stingray came out to surprise him and sang the song for our father/daughter dance. Seeing my dad so happy touched my heart deeply. I would recommend Stingray to everyone. He is a fabulous performer and person. He is one of the best! I am so glad that I was lucky enough to find him. Thank you for having him on your site!!

5 is not high enough. To infinite and beyond would be my rating. It is now almost a month since the event and my guests are still praising Stingray. What a show!! Everyone believed Elvis was in the building. From my first conversation with Stingray to the night of the event, he is a true professional, courteous, accomadating and talented. Stingray took the time to visit and take pictures with my guests which was a big hit. I think the biggest compliment we can give is he truly enjoys the performance which captures the audience and draws them in for a memorable show. My sincerest thanks to Stinray for making the event such a success

I hired Stingray as a surprise for my husband as he is an Elvis fan and up until our first dance together, he had no idea. He was a huge success for the young and old (and in our case that ranged from 2 to 80) Our wedding was 2 weeks ago and we're still receiving phone calls about Stingray's performance! I can't tell you how amazing he was in every way from the minute we inquired about his services, right up to our wedding day and his performance. He was extremely accommodating, advisable, flexible, professional and most important, an all around fun person who loves a crowd! His talent and experience shines through in what he does as a performer and I highly recommend Stingray to any and everyone! Thank you Stingray! Sincerely, Jennifer & Don Verdin

When we decided we wanted an Elvis impersonator to perform the ceremony music for our wedding, we thought we would never find someone who would take us seriously, let alone be able to provide what we were looking for. After some Google searching, we came across the Gigmasters site, which -- to our astonishment -- had a whole list of Elvis impersonators for hire. It was so easy to just search, enter some information, and then click ... and we had our Elvis! What shocked us even more, however, was that this Elvis was not just a guy who looks and sounds like Elvis. Stingray was exceptionally helpful and accommodating from the first day we reserved his services. He found us an accompanying harpist (another idea we thought was a pipe dream), assisted in our song selection, and set the stage for a wedding that had some interesting contrasts that we weren't sure we could pull off. In person, Stingray had the utmost professionalism and personability. He was kind and generous with our guests, posing for impromptu pictures after his performance and even assisting with the microphone for our officiant during the ceremony. He was kind and patient with me, the harried bride, when things were at their most hectic and confusing. And his performance blew us and our guests away. Stingray helped to make our wedding the memorable, unique experience that it was. As I told him in an email, Stingray is The King among men.

There are no words to properly describe Stingray's overall performance. It was above and beyond expectations. His ability to read the audiance as well as his kindness to my Brother-in-Law (he is mentally challenged, a 10 year old in a 50yr old man's body) was totally AWESOME!!!!! He had no problem at all with sharing the stage with him. In fact, I think he actually got a kick out of it. If I could, I would rate him above a 10, however, your rating scale only goes up to 10 (10 being the best)and he was definately off the charts. I want to Thank Stingray from the bottom of my heart, it meant so much to us all, especially my Bro-in-Law. Thank you, Robin Kizis

Even though I received several bids for that evening (some lower), I knew Stingray was the King from his website. I had a few special requests that he accommodated with no problem, and he was very proactive in his correspondence with me leading up to the event. The guest of honor was surprised and over the moon that Elvis came to his going-away party. Thank you! Diane Rohan, The Main Event
