MATT TRAINED AS A VOCALIST/ENTERTAINER FOR OVER 3 YEARS.

HE SOON BECAME LEAD VOCALIST IN TEAM SHOWS.

HIS TALENT FOR ORGANISATION AND TEAM LEADERSHIP WAS THEREASON HE BECAME PARK COMPERE AND LATER, ASSISTANT ENTERTAINMENTS MANAGER

IT WAS DURING ONE OF THE TEAM SHOWS THAT MATT WAS RECOGNISED AS AN EXCELLENT SINGER AND WAS INTRODUCED TO A GUITARIST WHO WAS IN A VERY SUCCESSFUL DUO CALLED STEPBACK.

MATT REPLACED THE LEAD SINGER AND SPENT FIVE YEARS TOURING THE COUNTRY, GAINING MORE VALUABLE EXPERIENCE IN ENTERTAINING AUDIENCES FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE.

MANY TIMES DURING HIS CAREER, SEVERAL PEOPLE NOTICED HIS SINGING VOICE SOUNDED LIKE THAT OF RONAN KEATING. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM HIS PICTURE, THERE ARE OTHER SIMILARITIES TO, ESPECIALLY THE EYES.

SINCE DECIDING TO DO THIS TRIBUTE TO RONAN KEATING HE HAS STUDIED FACTS, BOUGHT EVERY CD, BOOK, MAGAZINE AND NEWSPAPER CONTAINING ARTICLES OF THIS VERY POPULAR SUPERSTAR, RONAN KEATING.

HIS FIRST GIG AS RONAN WAS WATCHED BY MORE THAN 6000 PEOPLE, BUT HIS EXPERIENCE SHOWED. HE WOWED THEM WITH HIS VOCAL ABILITY AND STAGE PRESENCE.

NOV 17^TH , THE WHOLE OF THE UK SAW RONAN ON BBC'S CHILDREN IN NEED.

A RECENT GIG FOR THE ORIGINAL RONAN KEATING'S WEBSITE DESIGNERS IS "RONAN'S" HIGHLIGHT SO FAR, BUT WHO KNOWS WHERE THIS JOURNEY WILL TAKE HIM.
