The great architect of vocal grandeur, Freddie Mercury, born on September 5th, 1946, blessed the world with a voice that seemed to descend from the heavens, only to then tear the earth asunder with its power. His legacy, entwined with the brilliance of Queen, set an unyielding standard for rock 'n' roll. Mercury was more than just a frontman—he was a creator, a visionary, and a spirit that shattered the boundaries of what music could be.

In the shadowy realms where music meets myth, where the electric ether trembles with whispers of rock's grand legacy, today we herald the birth of Brian May, a man whose name resonates like an ancient incantation in the chronicles of Queen. From the haunted halls of Grateful Web, we offer this tribute, steeped in poetic hues, to the maestro whose guitar sings tales of melancholy and euphoria.

Queen Rock Montreal captures the world’s most iconic rock band at the very peak of their live powers. Recorded in 1981 and recently released as a record-breaking digitally restored IMAX concert film, this landmark moment in the band’s history is now being released as both double Blu-Ray and double 4K Ultra High Definition packages, plus double CD and triple vinyl packages. Both come May 10th the band has announced.

Rising singer, songwriter, and guitarist Joe Samba, who finds the sweet spot between smoked-out Caribbean bliss and sweat-soaked punkified energy, has released an incredible new tribute for the Queen hit “Don’t Stop Me Now” to mark the song’s 45th Anniversary. The legendary British rock band originally released the track as a single on January 26, 1979. Joe’s version features Dave Petti on drums, Justino Lee Walker on guitars, and Billy Kottage of The Interrupters on keyboards and trombone.

It might be a musical stretch to even think of the British rock-pop band Queen and U.S. folk-rock singer John Sebastian in the same thought bubble. But it’s really an ironic numbers thing about them both that just came to mind. As Sebastian once sang in a Lovin’ Spoonful song, “there’s thirteen-hundred and fifty-two guitar pickers in Nashville.” And, of course, there aren’t that many Queen tribute bands in the world.

One of the world’s best Queen tribute bands, Killer Queen, will be rocking the U.S. once more this year!
