I am not a ROCK STAR
I am not an AMERICAN IDOL
I am not an IMPERSONATOR
The music of Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon continues to thrill and captivate audiences in every corner of the world. QUEEN songs live on in movies, sports stadiums, radio, theatres and on DVD. The legacy of these four, fearless musicians continues to inspire and influence artists across many genres of music.
Since the death of Freddie, QUEEN reinvented itself with various singers to keep the music alive. However, many feel the magic was missing in these attempts to reconnect with long-time fans. Though no one could recreate the larger-than-life charisma and talent of Freddie Mercury many talented artists and impersonators remind us how great the music of QUEEN is.
As Brian & Roger, with John’s approval, search for a new singer to present some of the greatest rock songs ever written to a hungry audience, dare I say…

But you are impersonating Freddy .. be yourself..
Hi Barry,
Actually, I wasn’t trying to impersonate him at all. I just tried to respect the nuances and inflections out of respect for Freddie and the material. Naturally, my voice is a blend of Freddie & George Michael and on some songs it just ‘matches up’ pretty well I guess.
When I work with Brian I’ll be sure to give a little more of myself to the classic Queen songs & the new material Brian & Roger want to present, similiar to what Paul Rogers did on their last album/tour.
Thanks for listening to the tunes. I appreciate it.
If you dont apply thre is very little chance of you winning.
I have very little chance of winning anyway…
John-Just listened to Under Pressure on You Tube-you absolutely nailed it. As you can imagine, my wife and I are raising our three kids to have an appreciation for the rock classics; and Queen is my 8 year old daughter’s favorite band. Can’t wait for her to hear my old college roommate doing it justice as well as anyone in the world. Keep up the great work! Sully
Johnny,
I’m lost for words but not emotions.
I love you,
Mom
