Killer Queen - Tribute to Queen
Featuring Patrick Myers As Freddie Mercury
Back by popular demand, Killer Queen - A Tribute To Queen returns to the historic Bilheimer Capitol Theatre!
Killer Queen formed back in June 1993. Their first public shows were at London University, following in the footsteps of the real Queen who had played their first shows there 21 years earlier. By 1995 Killer Queen's UK popularity had grown to such an extent they secured a residency in London's Strand Theatre attracting nationwide BBC coverage - the first tribute to have a show in the West End. The band's reputation continued to grow both in the UK and abroad.
Lead singer Patrick Myers said “It's been an amazing journey. That first show back in June 1993 changed my life. We thought our band would last maybe a summer at the most but it's a very addictive thing performing these songs! The concerts grew and grew and we've ended up playing and selling out the same arenas that Queen played at their peak. It's been quite a surreal ride.”
In 1999 they returned from a tour of and Europe and Russia for an awards ceremony in Leicester Square, hosted by Suggs from Madness. He announced they had won the award for “Worldwide Best Tribute Band”. The band also scored a #1 hit when they they were asked to recreate Queen's harmonies for The Real Life with Fatboy Slim in 2001. As Killer Queen toured into their second decade, their audience grew.
In 2005 they played Ahoy Stadium, where the reformed Queen would be performing only a few months later. The next year Killer Queen joined forces with Bjorn Again and The Bootleg Beatles for a Waverley Stadium show in Edinburgh. It was this performance that led to the band being selected to represent Queen in a re-staged tribute LiveAid concert held by Sir Bob Geldof. They performed with him at his arena charity concert to raise funds for the homeless. 2009 saw a triumphant return to a sold out Ahoy stadium with their acclaimed Queen Spectacular production and another award, this time from Sweden's Vasteras concert hall “Best Concert of The Year 2009”.
Killer Queen set their sights on America including the awe-inspiring Red Rocks Arena in Colorado – one of the country’s most prestigious venues. The Beatles, Springsteen, U2 have all played there and the band are delighted it's become a regular sell out fixture on Killer Queen's tour sheet. 2023 saw the band play packed arenas across Europe: Stavangar in Norway and Cardiff, Nottingham, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Leeds in the UK. 2024 included an arena tour of Lithuania, UK arena shows in Liverpool, Newcastle and Liverpool as we as more sell out shows in Red Rocks and Austin City Limits.
