'Elvis' Sings, Dances in Chappaqua

For Anthony Liguori, an Elvis impersonator for about 25 years, Wednesday night's performance got folks dancing and kids crowding to the front of the gazebo stage in interest.

Liguori, who did renditions of works by The King that included "Blue Suade Shoes," "Burning Love" and "Jailhouse Rock," was the second act of four taking place for New Castle's summer concert series.

Dressed in a replica of a 1970 outfit that Elvis wore in Las Vagas, he enjoyed the occasion.

"It’s a really nice place, it’s a beautiful park, the kids are great."

Liguori, over the course of his career, has performed at the Meadowlands, cruise ships, casinos and theaters. For about the last eight years, he has teamed up with Bill Turner & Blue Smoke, which was on hand for the concert. Turner was once part of Bill Haley and His Comets.

Liguori also does Catholic group fundraisers, which he goes into more detail about here in an interview with our sister site, Hasbrouck Heights Patch, in New Jersey.
