There’s something undeniably magical about the way music can stop us in our tracks. It has the power to captivate, inspire, create fun moments, and even bring strangers together. You’ll love street performers Allie Sherlock and Rhys McPhilips as this duo performs a fantastic cover of Elvis Presley’s classic of ‘Jailhouse Rock.’ 

Dressed down in a leather jacket, jeans, and a black baseball cap, Allie focuses on the words as she lifts her guitar and strums for the first few opening lines of the famous song. But then she belts out the first few lyrics, stopping shoppers in their tracks. She sings with immense passion and has a deep, throaty voice that reminds me of Kelly Clarkson and Lauren Daigle. She is a soulful vocal powerhouse with flair and style. Before we know it, it’s Rhys’ turn to join in. 

‘Let's rock

Everybody, let's rock

Everybody in the whole cell block

Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock’

Rhys managed to capture what made Elvis Presley so legendary. He sang with a unique combination of power and raw emotion, perfectly capturing the song's attitude. Together, Allie and Rhys created a vibrant and energetic song, and they blended their voices seamlessly. 

The crazy thing about this pair singing is they are mere teenagers. Teens who have a passion for music and a love for performing. It makes one wonder where they will be in a few years, as we hope they will get the opportunity to realize their dreams with a record deal. Their voices are the kind you won’t soon forget. As they finished the last few notes of the song, the crowd erupted into applause while Allie and Phys smiled and thanked everyone for listening. We hope you enjoyed this performance just as they enjoyed performing a classic.
