For 25 years Donnie And The Monarchs have
delivered a constant stream of classic Rock 'n Roll, to
audiences in venues across Eastern Canada, becoming a Maritime
Rock 'n Roll icon along the way.
2007 is the Silver anniversary for the Monarchs, marking
25 years of entertaining old and young.
The Monarchs have worked with many legendary performers
such as The Beach Boys, Tiny Tim, Dr. Hook, Bobby Day, Tommy
Roe, The Coasters, Freddy Cannon, Tommy Hunter, John Allen
Cameron, the Rankin Family and Canadian Idol finalist Casey
LeBlanc.
Noted for a choice of classic dancing favorites
from the 50s to the 90s, mixed with great costumes, wild
antics and audience participation, The Monarchs demand
dancing and singing along, and the feeling is contagious!
The band consists of lead singer and guitarist Lee Boyer,
keyboardist Gary Chase, bass guitarist Kris McIntyre, drummer
John McIntyre, and lead guitarist Bob Morgan.
In 2003 the Monarchs added the movie business to their
credits, appearing as themselves in Geraldine's Fortune,
starring Jane Curtain, Mary Walsh, Shelia McCarthy and
Peter McNeil.
