In 1977, when Monro junior was 13, he was invited by his father to join him on stage to perform a duet.[1]
When he signed with EMI in 1995, modern technology enabled him to sing with his father again. The album, Matt Sings Monro, is a collection of Matt Monro songs, rearranged as duets featuring Monro junior and senior.
In 2005, he toured England with a new show, The Legend Lives On which was a year in the making[citation needed] and took him to over 40 concert venues across England.[citation needed] He toured the same show in 2006.[citation needed] In the last few years, he has been working with his late father's musical director, Colin Keyes.[2]
