About: MerQury
If they didn't know better, even the most hardened Queen
fans would think that Freddie Mercury himself had risen from the grave back to
the stage. That's because there is a show band out of Dresden that combines
unparalleled showmanship and musicianship with a passion for celebrating the
music of Queen. It is hard to put in words what magic this music, these
melodies create. The musical legacy of Queen is undeniable, and Dresden's
MerQury perfectly revive the beauty and power of Queen with pyrotechnics,
elaborate wardrobes and sets, and individual flair. Wherever MerQury have
performed, at home or abroad, the brilliant combination of faithful
reproduction and ground-shaking innovation has won them an ever-increasing
audience over the last twelve years around the world.
“Unique among European acts I've ever heard, MerQury brings
the classic songs and sounds of Queen to today's stage by mixing elements of
groove, jazz and soul with their remarkable showmanship. The trademark voice of
lead singer Johnny Zatylny, the lavish props, and the theatrical accents and
pyrotechnics have attracted a large following throughout the years - a
following that I am sure will continue to grow rapidly. More than anything,
this is because the charismatic live shows of MerQury are truly unlike those of
any other musical group I've seen in Europe or America, for that matter.”
