FRED GARDNER



Arguably one the biggest and greatest singing performers of all time,
'Al' Blue eyes' is uniquely recreated in Fred Gardner's fantastic special tribute performance.

Freddie recreates Sinatra the Superstar with his show.
He performs with bands and quality written arrangements or with professional backing tracks, sounded and orchestrated from the original recordings.

He has performed as Frank Sinatra at various prestigious venues and on TV, both at home and abroad.

Performance Style:
His usual style of performance is to both sing and talk in the guise of 'Frank Sinatra', imitating his cabaret style in tuxedo and bow tie, or 'rat pack' style lounge suit.

Fred’s appearance at private and corporate parties is always an awesome success amongst guests, including those who ‘have seen it all’. He offers a superb solo with backing tracks performance of 60 or 2x45mins and when budget permits we highly recommend his cool show, with a fabulous eight
piece swing band.
