"This award winning Band, with its dynamic stage show has been wowing audiences from the UK to Europe to Dubai.

"A choreographed stage show, with spectacular and authentic costumes, high class production including dramatic and striking lighting effects.

"The show includes stardom, showmanship and an energetic performance from Joseph Lee Jackson as 'Freddie', together with excellent musicianship, including beautifully crafted harmonies, and intricate guitar work from Glenn Scrimshaw as 'Brian May'.

Carolyn continued: "Mercury takes their audiences through a legacy of songs which never lose their stature as classics to live on forever.

"Mercury play theatres, outdoor festivals, high profile corporate and private events, gaining a renowned reputation, and returning to venues time and time again.
