The Show

Looking for the best Frank Sinatra Tribute Act?  You have come to the right place. You’re not booking some ‘Stranger In The Night’ because Ian Gallagher has over thirty years experience singing Frank Sinatra songs in the style of the great Frank Sinatra.

This lifelong interest has made Ian a considerable authority on the lives of Frank Sinatra and The Rat Pack and his extensive knowledge has led him to be sought for television and radio interviews. Last year Ian appeared no less than sixteen times on national television playing Frank Sinatra and he is the preferred first choice for clients seeking an authentic Sinatra tribute show.

Ian can appear with a complete Big Band, quartet or trio – you decide on the size of the band for the tribute show, but whatever your choice you are guaranteed musicians of the highest calibre, and arrangements that are true to the original Sinatra scores.

From the moment the Classic Sinatra Show starts, Ian’s high regard for Frank Sinatra’s music is evident. His energy and passion for this legendary King of Swing will have your toes tapping and you’ll want to sing along, get up and dance.

Recognised as one of the very best Frank Sinatra Tribute Acts in the country Ian has performed at top venues including the London Palladium, Buckingham Palace and even performed at Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber's wedding.

Music from many other great swing singers of the era can also be included in the show and favourites like Dean Martin’s ‘That’s Amore’ and Sammy Davis Junior’s ‘Mr Bojangles’ are always very popular. The music of Britain’s Matt Monro (see www.portraitofmattmonro.co.uk), and hits from other great artists like Tony Bennett, Andy Williams and Nat King Cole all contribute to an outstanding show that has enthralled audiences worldwide.

At each performance you have the option for Ian to set the scene by dressing the room with some of the finest collection of Sinatra memorabilia in the world. He has spent years bringing together mementos that tell a little of the life story of Mr. Sinatra, these treasures include a telegram from Grace Kelly when he received his Oscar, genuine signed photographs of the Rat Pack and 24 carat gold signed discs. Huge canvas paintings of Frank and the Rat Pack bring to life the swing era, and Sinatra’s trademark hat and a bottle of his favourite tipple Jack Daniels remind you of the great man himself as Ian takes to the floor. It’s always been important to Ian to be as true to his idol as he can and the suit he wears on stage is an exact replica of Sinatra’s trademark black tuxedo and his hat has been acquired from Mr. Sinatra’s milliner.
