He said: "I've been blessed with a natural talent for singing and am also a genuine Elvis fan. I'm very lucky to be able to enjoy two careers. "

Dean performs in clubs, pubs and corporate venues across the UK and many of his shows raise money for local charities.
On Friday March 12 he will be at the Royal Armouries in Leeds to raise cash for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance charity.
He said: "It is a fantastic organisation that has saved over 3,000 lives, yet somehow it survives on a donation only basis.
"I hope we get a full house and as much support as possible."
The show starts at 7.30pm and tickets are 6. Dean hopes to raise up to 7,000 from the event , which will also feature a disco and more rock classics from cover band Ten Feet Tall.
