Get ready to rock to Queen classics

This tribute band will rock you with their Royal Rhapsody Tour bringing the iconic music of Queen to South Morang in March.

Jason Hess is ready to transform into Freddie Mercury, and take you back in time along with the rest of the QUEEN ROCKS tribute band at Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre (PRACC).

Hess said he was excited to see fans dance and sing along to hit tracks like ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘Somebody to Love.’

“Our aim is to have the audience suspend belief momentarily and imagine they are actually at a Queen concert in their heyday.”

Hess even performs Queen’s trademark call and response audience interaction, capturing the essence of Freddie Mercury.

“We get the audience to clap and sing along at different stages throughout the performance.”

Hess said his favourite on-stage moment is getting the audience to join in at the end of ‘Somebody to Love’.

“The audience will become the Plenty Ranges choir and join in when the song builds.”

Hess said the performance transports the audience to a simpler time.

“It gives people of the same generation as the band a sense of nostalgia, and simple joy.”

He said more young people have attended the show since the release of the Bohemian Rhapsody biopic film.

“Queen as a band has cemented themselves into pop culture… for all ages.”

QUEEN ROCKS will perform at PRACC on Saturday 21 March at 7.30pm. Ttickets are available online at https://www.pracc.com.au
