The tradition of religious music was a part of daily life for the young Elvis when growing up in Tupelo, Mississippi. The Presley family attended the First Assembly Of God church, watched the country stars perform church standards on the weekly shows, and as a teen, Elvis and his friends would sneak into churches to catch the lively music of a different musical heritage. A passion that he would carry throughout his professional career and personal life, spirituals and gospels were an important influence on both Elvis Presley the performer and Elvis Presley the man.
