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. 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 number one hit when they they were asked to recreate Queen's harmionies
for “The Real Life” with Fatboy Slim in 2001.
Killer Queen toured into their second decade, the audiences 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”. 2013 saw them performing in another one of Queen's former venues, this time the
Brighton Centre to celebrate their 20th Anniversary.
In 2016 Killer Queen set their sights on America including the awe inspiring Red Rocks Arena in
Colorado – one of the countries most prestigious venues. The Beatles, Springsteen, U2 have all
played there and the band are delighted it's become a regular fixture on Killer Queen's tour sheet.
