About Monty
Originally from Sydney, Monty moved to Western Australia some years ago and began building his music career alongside his corporate career.
With a singing voice uncannily like the legendary Johnny Cash and a love of his music, Monty created A Boy Named Cash, his greatest-hits tribute to the Man in Black.
Since then, Monty has performed across Australia and the UK at arts festivals, rodeos, musters, corporate events, weddings, mine sites, cruise ships, pubs and clubs, as well as on breakfast radio and morning television. He has also appeared on The Voice Australia and performed sold-out shows at Edinburgh Fringe, Adelaide Fringe and Perth FRINGE WORLD.
Beyond Johnny Cash, Monty performs a broad range of country, rock and roll, Australian classics and contemporary music. His energetic, audience-engaging style and ability to adapt the show to different crowds have made him a popular choice for rodeos, musters, festivals and events across Australia.
