The Elvis tribute act recently returned from Memphis, where Bakker was invited to perform his show for thousands of fans at Elvis's former residence, Graceland.
He was the Australian representative at Elvis week, which is held each year at the famous ranch as part of Elvis's anniversary.
"I was very excited and honoured to have had this opportunity, as this must be the ultimate dream come true," Bakker said.
"Not only to be there at Graceland but to actually be part of the entertainment booked at this massive event.
"The standing ovation I received was overwhelming and proved to me that even the die-hard Elvis fans in Memphis appreciated the Aussie accent and sincerity in my salute to the king."
Bakker will perform a free gig at Morisset Country Club tomorrow night (Friday, May 22) from 8pm to 11pm.
