Freddie Mercury and his Cats

Freddie was destined to become a star!

Freddie began to study art and ultimately earned a diploma in Art and Graphic Design at Ealing Art College (now the Ealing campus of University of West London), later using these skills to design the Queen heraldic arms. In 1969, Freddie joined up with a group called Ibex as their lead singer. He played with a few other bands before joining forces with Taylor and May.

How would you describe Queen’s Music?

Queen’s music has been described as a fusion of hard rock and glam rock, it echoes through arenas with the thunderous double-stomp and clap of We Will Rock You to the triumphant We Are The Champions.
