MILLVILLE -- Wise men can say whatever they want -- Elvis Presley is King. And as part-time Elvis impersonator Samuel Formica knows -- it is good to be King. Uh-huh. That's right, baby.
"Sammy J." -- Formica's performing alter-ego -- was among three Elvis impersonators competing during 3rd Friday in the Glasstown Arts District. Formica, a Philadelphia-based artist, won a $150 prize for his act.
He said he's been doing about a dozen shows a year for the past three years. He got his start by answering a dare at a karaoke bar. "It's a lot of money when I do a show," Formica said. "Basically, it's a way to burn off stress."
Sammy J, Elvis Presley Tribute Artist served time in the military. His dedication to preserving the integrity of Elvis's music as well as his charitable nature prompted Sammy to perform not only a tribute night, but raise money for troops abroad as well. Sammy J is renown nationwide for his remarkable likeness to Elvis in all three areas--his look, his moves, his voice. It is a rare treat to have Sammy J perform and we are proud to host him!
