Ronan Keating Tribute Show


Ronan Keating tribute

Andy Nolan is Europe's Number One tribute to Ronan Keating.

From Scotland to Switzerland, from Turkey to the Canaries, Andy Nolan has entertained fans all across Europe with his tribute to Ronan Keating.

The rise of Boyzone was phenomenal. Under the guidance of manager Louis Walsh, the five Dublin lads quickly established themselves as the UK’s no.1 boy band. However, it was front-man Ronan Keating who always stole the show, eventually going on to carve out his own solo career and become one of Europe’s biggest stars.

The routine of showcasing all over the U.K. has reaped it’s own rewards, earning Andy the recognition of the biggest entertainment agencies in the business. This has taken him to the point where he is now in demand all over the U.K. and beyond. Delighting audiences with the very latest songs - always spot-on vocally (they just love that Dublin accent!) always looking the part and of course, always re-booked.

It was summed up very well by Mark Ritchie of The Stage "Andy Nolan should do very well with his tribute to Ronan Keating. This has to be one of the most convincing lookalikes and soundalikes on the market".

The show is very flexible and can be staged a 45 minute spot, a 60 minute spot or 2 x 45 minute spots.

Here is a sample of Andy's work. Just double-click on the link and it should start playing in Windows Media Player within ten seconds. If you are having trouble playing the MP3 see the Help section at the bottom of this page.

Help! How do I play these music files?

It's easy! Just double-click on the link and Windows Media Player (or whatever music player you have installed on your PC) should run and start playing the music file within a few seconds. Make sure you have your speakers plugged in and switched on.

If you have a Broadband internet connection (which is very fast), then the music files should play very smoothly straight away.

However, if you have a standard "Dialup" connection (your modem dials up to allow you to make the connection to the internet) then you will find the music file stops and starts all the time. This is because your PC music player is trying to stream or play the music as it downloads to your hard drive but your internet connection isn't fast enough to play the music smoothly.

If that is what is happening to you, then all you have to do is let the music stagger through once (it is downloading as this is happening) and then it will play at full speed after that. You can then listen to the the music file as many times as you want.

We hope that has helped you. If not, just give us a ring on 0141 577 6604 and we'll talk you through it.

We're here to help you in any way we can.
