Riley Jenkins

Riley Jenkins is an award-winning Elvis Tribute Artist, who’s love for music and for Elvis Presley came at an early age of three years old when he heard “The King” sing “Blue Suede Shoes” for the first time.
At just 22 years of age, Riley is taking the tribute artist industry by storm with his tribute to the Early Years of “The Greatest Entertainer of All Time.” Riley’s tribute to Elvis takes you back in time to 1956 when a shy, humble boy from Tupelo, Mississippi changed the face of American music and pop culture.
Some of Riley’s accolades include being the 2019 Elvis FANtasy Fest Grand Champion, the 2021 Heart of the King Horizon Award, the 2023 Nashville Elvis Festival Grand Champion, and the 2024 Branson Elvis Festival Grand Champion. This August, Riley placed as one of the Top 5 Finalists of the 2024 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest held every year at Graceland in Memphis during Elvis Week.
Currently Riley is starring as Elvis in the Tony Award Winning Broadway Musical “Million Dollar Quartet” in at The Shepherd of the Hills in Branson, Missouri. With his charming looks, uncanny voice, charismatic moves, and West Tennessee roots, Riley embodies the raw magnitude that Elvis had when he exploded onto the scene back in the 1950’s.
As he continues to climb the mountain of success higher and higher, his growing legion of adoring fans have given him the nickname, “The Tennessee Dynamite.”
