I was there when he started know all his songs by
heart and love them all but I am particularly interested in the seldom heard
and I just wanted to say that you do such a remarkably superb version of
"Mine" and "Suppose". You have such a wonderful ear and talent for
duplicating and holding his notes with that subtle tremble he would employ.
Knocks me out! Thank you." Phil.


I love your voice, especially when you sing Hurt, There goes my everything and Don't cry daddy. I am a huge Elvis fan and have been for 44 years. I also like your chosen name, Dekak Rivers, Elvis' name in Lovin You??? Keep up the good work. It's so nice to hear someone that can actually sing Elvis songs. Don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to critisize anyone, but there are some good ETA's out there and your one of them. I do have a couple of fav's though, and yet there are others that tend to make a mockery out of Elvis, which I can't stand. He was one of a kind, but its good to hear some good singers keeping his memory alive. But then, how could we ever forget him. Anyway, take care. Trudy.

We had booked Deak to perform his Elvis Tribute as a final conclusion to our Las Vegas wedding. The aim of the evening was to recreate the excitement and fun of Vegas for our family and friends of our wedding party. It achieved just that.
The whole performance from start to finnish was incredibly memorable.
Family & friends have been commenting continously.
Arrived on time and were professional all evening. They really added atmosphere and the music was incredible. All our favourite Elvis songs and dance moves were included. We certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend and are sincerely grateful for a wonderful evening.

You sound amazing. I always thought Ronnie McDowell was the best "Elvis" but you are as good or better than him. Thanks alot and I really enjoyed listening to those tracks. Love Shelia - USA

Hi Deak, I just want to thank you for a wonderful nights entertainment at the Dernagate Theatre, Northampton. My wife and I have not been out for 5 years since the loss of our 5 year old daughter. You made us feel that you were singing just to us, and helped to restore our faith in human nature again. The meeting afterwards as we knocked on your dressing room door to thank you for a wonderful night, you were so nice and humble. You took the time to speak to us and that meant so much to us, so thank you so much. I don't want to give our names.
Your fans from Northampton.

You look like you really enjoyed yourself, you always will be a great performer!!! love ya loads x x x

The Legends of Rock n Roll show that was held at Cheddington hall on Saturday was amazing. The costumes, the lighting to the music was great. For someone who is only 16, thought it might be good, but it was AMAZING!!!
Suzie, Hertfordshire

Deak Rivers and his band were a great success! He was really good and certainly helped make a wonderful party. Please pass on my thanks to him and thank you for all your help.
David, Herts

Fantastic! I have seen a number of Elvis/Buddy tributes over the years, but Deak Rivers is really the one i'll book again. Legends of Rock 'n' Roll were great and they got everyone up dancing which was fantastic. We couldn't get enough of him, and the couple of extra songs Deak sang were very much appreciated. Deak Rivers is one of the nicest people i've met....Thanks for a great show.
Kind Regards
Denise, Milton Keynes

The atmosphere was electric. Whether you are a Buddy of Presley fan, this show is great entertainment.
Pam, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire

How you get through so many songs and moves in one show outstands me. I live in Devon and came down to visit my sister. She brought tickets to see your show, I was blown away. If your ever in Devon, please let me know. My email address is ...... God Bless you,
Debbie, Devon

Deak done a show for my mothers birthday party, and I must say it was a sensational night. Mother is a great Elvis fan and was in her element with the way that Deak interacted with the crowd and also sang mum's favourite song to her on stage. I would say to anyone, if you get the chance to see Deak live, then do it. You will not be dissapointed.

Oh yes ... I have no words to say how I feel .. only one .. WOW!!!! I just love 'Let us Pray'. I can't believe it's not Elvis singing. Dave was right ... you are magic. I have not heard them all, but I will do later. God gave you a wonderful talent and voice... I can't explain how i feel but I do that you have been blessed. Thank you so much for the chance to hear you Deak ... Love you so much xxxxx M Blue
