The Matt Monro Experience


You have certainly come to the right place to book the No 1 Matt Monro Tribute Experience in Great Britain. Ian prides himself on his attention to detail his professionalism will bring you the ultimate Matt Monro Experience. Ian will focus on your event and his passion and dedication is your guarantee of success. At Portrait of Matt Monro we will hit the right note every time.


When Ian sings with some of he best full orchestral backing tracks (you won’t hear any synthesisers here) you’ll be amazed just how close Ian sounds to the real thing, with perfect English diction Ian will bring Matt’s songbook alive as if the great Man had never been away.


Ian is rightly recognised as one of the finest singers in Great Britain and is just as proud of his London roots as Matt himself was. Ian was recently offered the lead in the massive West End hit ‘The Rat Pack’ and the chance to play his other great hero, Frank Sinatra who was also a massive fan of the boy from Shoreditch, Matt Monro.


Ian has sung in some of the top venues in the UK and for some of the biggest names in show business for example, he sang at Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Wedding.


You will hear all of Matt’s hits, sung to perfection, unforgettable love songs, like the classic ‘Portrait of My Love’, cool swinging up tempo hits like ‘My Kind of Girl’ you’ll hear beautiful, lilting, love songs like ‘Softly As I Leave You’ (which Sinatra called one of the most haunting love songs he has ever heard).


You will hear Matt’s greatest chart success ‘Walk Away’ sung with perfect timing and understated English passion. Lennon and McCartney’s classic ‘Yesterday’ which was a massive hit for Matt and is given his unique treatment and who could forget ‘On Days Like These’ from the Italian Job.


Enjoy the ambience of cool sophistication as Ian walks on stage in a tailor made exact replica of Matt Monros’ trade mark black tuxedo, immaculately attired in sixties chic, Ian will launch into ‘From Russia With Love’. You will be transported to a time when England was cool and be reminded that for millions, James Bond was never more exciting than when Matt was centre stage – cool Britannia indeed!


Let’s not forget the song Matt will forever be associated with ‘Born Free’ and many other movie theme songs which Matt sang in his long career, are also included. Also, Ian can tailor the show to your personal requirements, so if you have a favourite Matt Monro hit, Ian will make sure it is included in the tribute.


‘If I Never Sing Another Song’ Matt’s poignant ballad, which is often considered to be autobiographical, is always included. So if you are looking for a Matt Monro tribute if you only book one singer, book Ian Gallagher as Matt Monro!
