Parkes can get pretty hot, so when Sean isn’t performing you can catch him relaxing by the pool, recharging for his next show.
For Sean Luke Spiteri Elvis has always been a huge part of his life, and in 2025 he celebrated his 25 year anniversary as an Elvis Tribute Artist. “Not a day goes by in the week, when I don’t listen, or watch, or talk about Elvis,” said Sean Luke.
“My passion for Elvis actually started when I was about three years old. I’d watch his performances and something just clicked.
It was the 1968 Comeback Special, his energy, the voice, the charisma, he captivated me straight away.”
Born and raised in Melbourne, when Sean was young he would constantly perform for friends and family, but his first proper show didn’t happen until he was 12. He still remembers it clearly, “It was at the Copacabana International nightclub in Fitzroy. There were over 400 people in the crowd, and there I was, 12 years old, dressed in my first professional Elvis jumpsuit, doing a full show.
They even paid me $150 for the gig.”
“My first ever Parkes Elvis Festival was back in 2004 when I was 16, and over the years I’ve been lucky enough to experience just about everything there. I’ve performed on the Main Stage at Cooke Park in front of more than 5,000 people, had my own featured shows at the Parkes Services Club, and performed in the main showroom at the Parkes Leagues Club. Parkes has given me so many special memories.”
Sean Luke Spiteri will be performing live at the Amazing Forbes Street Breakfast in Templar St Forbes, Friday 9 January from 8am8.45am, and at multiple locations across Parkes during the Parkes Elvis Festival.
