ALMOST QUEEN: The Ultimate Queen Experience

ALMOST QUEEN: The Ultimate Queen Experience

Presented by City of Akron, Community Events Division at Lock 3 Akron

ALMOST QUEEN is THE most authentic QUEEN live show since the days of QUEEN themselves. A deliberate four piece band, Almost Queen delivers a live performance showcasing signature four part harmonies and intricate musical interludes. Donning genuine costumes, Almost Queen recaptures the live energy and precision that is the penultimate Queen experience.

 

Chris Allen is an acclaimed songwriter from Cleveland, OH, and front man for the alt-rocking band Rosavelt.  Rosavelt garnered much local and national acclaim in the late 90’s with their 4 releases, including the Sony Red Eye national release of The Story of Gasoline which received 4 stars in Paste Magazine. From 2006 to present Allen has also released 4 solo albums, including the latest Everything Changes But the Rodeo (2014), available on vinyl, CD and all digital outlets.  The album was produced by Don Dixon (REM, Smithereens), it was recorded in upstate New York and features Tom Prebish (Rosavelt/The Ohio City Singers) on bass and Mark Stepro (Ben Kweller/Jakob Dylan/Gavin DeGraw/Keith Urban) on drums.
