Read what clients and fans have to say about Gene
“One of the featured acts at the Southington Italian American Festival was Gene DiNapoli a first time performer at the festival..
Gene had them on their feet in the first half of his show in which he performed many songs from the 50’s and 60’s. The mix of oldies pleased everyone young and old. The second half of his show was an Elvis Tribute. Again Gene had them jumping with a full set of songs that made Elvis famous.. The high energy show was rewarded by a standing ovation by the appreciative audience with many requests that we bring Gene back again next year.”

“Gene was absolutely delightful!! We booked him for our monthly Senior Center luncheon not knowing what to expect. Everyone was so pleased with his performance. He actually sounded like Elvis! He interacted with the seniors with his jokes, took song requests and even danced with a couple of them! We have been getting such positive feedback about Gene. We will definitely book him again for one of our future luncheons. We highly recommend him!”

“It was such a pleasure to work with Gene from the very first time I contacted him. He was quick to respond to emails, answer my questions, and he was professional every step of the way. The night of the event Gene showed up not only on time, but early. He was talented, funny, and very interactive with everyone. There was never a dull moment, and he had the whole room dancing, laughing, and singing for his entire performance. We had a ball with Gene, and would hire him again in a heartbeat.”

“Gene DiNapoli put on an excellent performance at the birthday party. It was easy to make the arrangements, he showed up on time, and he was well prepared. In his performance he was able to include and entertain every one, the young children, teenagers, and adults. He had the guests singing, dancing, and laughing. Everyone, including my brother-in-law whose birthday it was, had a very good time. I highly recommend him and I am really happy that he was the Elvis Impersonator that we got for the party.”

“Awesome! Gene made my party a huge success! My guests were welcome to come to the dance floor while he sang. He brought back many good memories for us all! Also, he sang a tribute song to one of our family members who is currently serving in Afghanistan. What a touching moment that none us will forget. I highly recommend Gene’s talents for any special occasion! Thank you Gene!!!”

“Gene was the highlight of the evening! From the moment he walked into the party, everyone was captivated by is performance. Not only did he sing, but he mingled with the audience and was funny and entertaining. Everyone at the party said that it was a very enjoyable and unexpected surprise. I know of Gene for many years, but never had the opportunity to see him in person, yet I always heard good things about him. Gene had a busy schedule booked for the same night of my party, but he was very accommodating and showed up on time and gave a great show. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to entertain their guests at any event. Many thanks and appreciation are sent to him from our family and friends!”

“Our party was a huge success and it had a lot to do with Gene’s performance. He is a first-class performer, has a great sense of humor, amazing talent, I can’t say enough wonderful things about Gene and his act. On top of everything else, Gene always returned my calls or emails, made me feel secure and comfortable, and allayed any fears or worries or concerns I may have had about my mother-in-law’s Sweet 60th birthday celebration. Gene is professional, prompt, meticulous in his preparation to make sure his act suits your occasion. I would highly recommend Gene DiNapoli to anyone looking for something different to add to their special occasions. I received so many compliments at the end of the party. I would gladly use Gene’s services again. 5 stars to Gene! Thank you!”

“If you want a special touch of fun for any party, hire Gene! Our party was in honor of my grandmother, one of the best people on the planet, and Gene really brought the party to another level of fun!! Even the little kids, including my 1 year old daughter, loved his performance. He is a wonderful entertainer and extremely professional! My sister actually didn’t even realize he was really singing until the end of the performance, she thought she was listening to a recording of Elvis! Book Gene, you will not be disappointed!”

“The hardest part was finding the right Elvis. I’m from Houston and the party was in New York. I must have called 3 or 4 Elvises. Gene was the only one that was prompt in calling me back and took the time to call me several times to answer my questions. Gene was over-the-top! He was professional, on time, warm and friendly. He has a great voice and knew every Elvis song we requested. Surprisingly, he knew the history of Elvis and between songs while we were catching our breath from dancing, we learned some interesting facts about Elvis. EVERYONE young and old danced and by the end of the nite we were exhausted! He stayed after his performance while we took photos of him and family members. The party was in July and everyone continues to talk about it. This party was a family reunion with the youngest at 6 years old and the oldest and 80 years old. I can honestly say that this reunion will go down in history as the best due to Gene’s performance and his ability to create a memorable evening full wild crazy fun! We now have the 6 year old requesting “Elvis” at her next birthday party! Gene is THE MAN and we highly recommend him. Carmon White – Houston, Texas Laura Gillespie – Dallas, Texas”
