About the artist

Matt Monro

Ah, Matt Monro, the smooth crooner with a voice like melted chocolate and a charm that could make your granny swoon. Born Terence Edward Parsons, this East London lad rose to fame in the 1960s with his velvety tones and easy-listening style. Hailing from a working-class background, Monro's rise to stardom was a classic rags-to-riches tale that endeared him to fans across the globe. His impeccable diction and Sinatra-esque swagger earned him the nickname "The British Sinatra," a comparison he never shied away from. Monro's catalogue is a treasure trove of timeless classics, from the hauntingly beautiful "Walk Away" to the jaunty "Born Free." His performances were always delivered with a twinkle in his eye and a wink to the audience, making him a firm favorite among the ladies. Despite his undeniable talent, Monro never quite reached the same level of fame as his American counterparts. But, as any true music aficionado will tell you, his legacy looms large in the pantheon of greats. So here's to Matt Monro, the unsung hero of British easy-listening, whose music continues to captivate and enchant listeners to this day. Raise a glass (or a cocktail) to the man who made us all believe in the power of song. Cheers, Matt. You're a true legend.
