The Johnston Brothers
Brothers, Garry and Derek Johnston have been singing and performing for over 20 years in the Tayside area of Scotland. Having started with local amateur musical societies, both have appeared in popular stage musicals, many of these in leading roles.
Just over 7 years ago, Garry and Derek were asked to sing together in a fundraising event for the Whitehall Theatre Trust in Dundee. Their repertoire included songs of Sinatra, Matt Monro, Andy Williams, Dean Martin and others of that era. Due to popular demand the original one night booking was expanded to two. The show was a great success in front of a capacity audience for both nights.
Since then they have had request after request to perform in various hotels, social and golf clubs in the Tayside area. Their act has proved extremely popular to all age groups, particularly in the 50+ range, and they are often requested for dinner dances.
The highlight of their career to date was performing in their own show at the Caird Hall, Dundee, where Sinatra himself once sang. This too was hugely popular and was a fundraiser for the Dundee Heritage Trust.
They have also performed on several other occasions for charitable events, including several more times at the Whitehall Theatre in Dundee.
The Johnston Brothers are passionate about singing and performing. They present a versatile act, catering to the tastes of any audience and venue. They do favour singing the songs of Sinatra, Monro and Williams and their natural rapport with each other, along with their exceptional voices for this music genre, has proved most popular time and time again. It is in their requests for singing songs from the musicals, however, that their fabulous voices can really be heard to stand out from the crowd and in which they truly excel.
Garry and Derek are now looking to broaden their horizons and are willing to perform anywhere where their talents may be required and enjoyed.
