CORPORATE ENTERTAINMENT
Monty's audience-engaging style and musical versatility has made him one of the most sought after entertainers in Western Australia for corporate events and private functions. When he's not in WA, Monty travels the world as a headline act on cruise ships, leading big bands and entertaining large audiences across the wild seas. Monty covers a broad range of styles from rock and roll and country to R&B and modern pop.
A popular option - Monty will showcase his Johnny Cash greatest hits tribute show A Boy Named Cash an as interactive feature presentation earlier in the evening for the guests. Later on, he can perform all the big hits from classic to modern so guests can finish the night off on the dance floor.
Whether as solo one man band with loops and stomp box, or in the “supergroup” with a variety of traditional instruments - double bass, banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, stompbox, drums - Monty takes on all the popular hits in a unique post modern jukebox style. Monty will have the audience singing and dancing with both a unique bluegrass and contemporary pop/rock feel.
Monty’s combination of country music, classic and contemporary hits, bush dance instrumentals, and audience engaging style always leaves a night to remember.

Monty was excellent. He turned up nice and early, and was all set up when I got there at 6pm. He played really well and was interactive with the crowd. His performance – playing and singing was excellent and he made a lot of people laugh. 10/10.

Mike (Corporate Function) – April 2017
It was a great success. Everything went perfectly, the delegates loved Monty and the band. He was a true professional and considering the amount of other things I had happening was good to know he was on top of his side of things. Please pass on my appreciation.

Emily – October 2015
Monty and his band were fantastic! I couldn’t have hoped for better entertainment and received glowing feedback from all of my guests. Monty and has band had everyone (even the most hesitant of dancers) up on the dancefloor for the whole night – they took requests and were just pretty fabulous the whole night. He even appeared on the Voice the night of our function and wanted a selfie with our entire crowd to commemorate the occasion which was great.
We wouldn’t hesitate in booking him again.
Taryn (Corporate Function) – June 2015
Just wanted to let you know Monty was fantastic last night – he did such a good job! Even coordinated with our guest speaker to play instrumentals over his speech/poems which was amazing.
Emma (Corporate Function) – May 2015
You hit that so perfectly
