Emilio Santoro is a World Class Elvis Lookalike and Soundalike. This is more than an Elvis Tribute show.
At only 19 years of age, Emilio is the Title Holder of the 2022 European Elvis Championship and currently holds over 6 winning titles for Elvis Contests, including the ‘People’s Choice’ Award in Canada at the beautiful ‘Niagara Falls Elvis Festival’ and ‘Images of the King’ Professional World Champion, a historic moment as he became Europe’s youngest world title winner ever, right on Elvis Presley Boulevard. Emilio also appeared in the finale of Americas Got Talent in September 2022 to incredible reviews by Simon Cowell, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum. Available as a solo Tribute or with a Live Band.
Emilio hails from Weston-s-Mare and has been rising through the Elvis Tribute Artist ranks for a few years now.
He has picked up multiple awards and fans along the way and, in 2019, he made his long awaited USA debut in Elvis’s home town of Memphis during Elvis week.
His 2019 Elvis week experience culminated with the ‘Images of the King’ World Championship Non Pro Division where he triumphed at just 17 years of age. Following on from Memphis Emilio entered the 2019 Porthcawl contest and walked away as Grand Champion. He then completed the ‘Hat Trick’ in Blackpool at the ‘Return to Memphis’ contest in early November – it seems 2019 was Emilio’s breakthrough year…
Then along came Covid-19. Although this obviously put his career on hold the work didn’t stop and he used the opportunity to fine tune his craft, Emilio also produced his first two albums ‘With Love’ and ‘The Christmas Album’. His third album ‘At the Movies’ followed in 2021.
2022 started with a huge bang as Emilio was victorious in the 2022 European Elvis Championships in Birmingham UK which means he has now completed a ‘clean sweep’ of all the available European titles. This European title resulted in national media attention.
April 2022 saw Emilio win the ‘Peoples Choice’ award in Canada at the beautiful ‘Niagara Falls Elvis Festival’.
The competitive highlight (so far) of Emilio’s career happened in August 2022 when he overcame the most incredibly tough opposition to become Images of the King Professional World Champion, a historic moment as he became Europe’s youngest world title winner ever right on Elvis Presley Boulevard. Along came Tech company Metaphysic.ai and Emilio joined the team and appeared in a historic finale of Americas Got Talent in September 2022.
On the contest front he will now turn his attention to the last of the available titles, EPE’s Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist where he will begin the quest to qualify at several events!
