Description:
Johnny Cowling, 36, has been
an entertainer for over ten years with his unique blend
of humour, music and a rare affinity to bond with his
audience. Coming from Cornwall he has been
compared to the comedy genius of Jethro, shares a lot in
common with the natural warmth of Michael Barrymore,
belts out a song almost as good as Elvis and has even
been described as having a ‘spoonful of Tommy
Cooper’.
Hugely popular in the South
West of the UK, Johnny has recently ventured further
afield as a support act for Paddy McGuiness on Tour and
proved his ability to entertain audiences well beyond
his home town of St Merryn.
The six foot one Cornishman
is not just a pretty face with a great talent for humour,
he also has a great singing voice and a penchant for
belting out Elvis numbers almost as good as the King
himself! This was used to great effect
at a special Elvis anniversary Gospel night at Truro
Cathedral where 900 people turned up to watch Johnny
perform. Johnny was a runner-up in the GMTV’s
Search for Elvis. (Go on, treat yourself to some vocals
while you read the rest of this…. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=9LqHGkZkSRA).
Johnny’s previous
experience has been centred largely in Cornwall,
supporting comedian, Jethro, regularly performing his
own shows around the region, and contributing to BBC
Radio Cornwall and BBC Video Nation. He is fast
becoming a popular booking for private and corporate
events, including This Morning presenter, Fern
Britton’s 50th birthday party, a Jag mobile
phone event at Silverstone and has played alongside the
Eastenders team in celebrity football.
Johnny’s talent is now becoming more widely recognised
and he is ripe for development as an entertainer on a
national scale.
Johnny’s
ability to connect with his audience – and indeed to
make them an integral part of his performance – makes
him more than simply a comedian or singer. This
natural warmth, combined with his humour and charisma,
makes him popular with audiences of all ages and
backgrounds and is an asset just waiting to be exploited
in the medium of television.
As
well as providing his entertainment for all manner of
charities - including the Children’s Hospice South
West, and various Churches all over the Country - Johnny
has more recently cycled London to Paris for the
Meningitis trust and Run the London Marathon for
Cornwall’s Air Ambulance raising over £8,500.
Johnny is married to Sarah and they have two children.
