Award winning singer Matthew Ford is widely regarded as the finest big band singer in the Uk, and  he is delighted to present this show which celebrates  Ol’ Blue Eyes and the Swing Legends.

The last two years have been an exciting time for Matt, with TV and Radio appearances on The One Show, Sky Arts, BBC Radio 2, Friday Night is Music Night and BBC Radio 3 In Tune programme. In addition to this Matt has toured the major UK concert Halls with the John Wilson Orchestra, culminating in a sold out show at the Royal Albert Hall. Matt made his third appearance on the BBC Proms in August with the John Wilson Orchestra, performing the music of George Gershwin . Matt has also performed at some of the UK’s most prestigious music festivals including Cheltenham, Aldeburgh, Hampton Court Palace and the Welsh Proms.

As always his nine piece band will feature the UK’s finest musicians, who with Matt, will perform a comprehensive celebration of the hits of Frank Sinatra. The show will also pay tribute to Tony Bennett, Matt Monro, Bobby Darin, Sammy Davis Jr, Andy Williams and many more.

If you like Sinatra, swing standards and The Rat Pack then this is the show for you.
