SUMMARY:Killer Queen
DESCRIPTION:Killer Queen have been performing their tribute to Queen’s concert since 1993. Their expert musicianship\, extraordinary energy and accurate portrayal of the world’s greatest live band have rightfully earned Killer Queen the title of Queen tribute royalty. \nThrilling sell-out audiences across the globe from the UK to Europe and annual tour of USA\, Killer Queen recreates the high energy\, powerful phenomenon that was Queen live. \nFronted by Patrick Myers as Freddie Mercury\, Time Out described Patrick’s resemblance to Freddie Mercury as “Spooky”. His uncanny likeness was further proven when he recorded a number one hit single singing as Freddie Mercury on Fat Boy Slim’s record The Real Life! \nThis quality\, combined with a powerful 3 ½ octave tenor range\, expert musicianship and dynamic stage presence\, has captivated audiences the world over.
