5/5 from 630 reviews
Photo of Rocking Elvis by Serafino Alberti Rocking Elvis by Serafino Alberti "Rocking Elvis was a surprise gift for our mum's 80th birthday. He played a 30min solo gig to a very small crowd indoors and he was everything we could have hoped for. Very entertaining and incredibly engaging, particularly with mum. She absolutely loved him. Serafino is obviously a very genuine, kind and thoughtful person, staying back to talk to mum - he made her feel particularly special. Highly recommended!"
