ONE VISION OF QUEEN - Announcement and Update

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT!
Hello, friends and fellow Queen fans!
It's mind boggling to think I've just celebrated a decade performing the music of Queen, around the globe, with incredible musicians in both the rock and symphonic world. The places I've been, the faces I've seen... and the songs we've sung! Thank you all so much for showing up to hundreds of concerts, enjoying and sharing my videos, and buying my music, whether Queen, Christmas, or otherwise!
I have been looking forward to announcing something exciting, and something you'll start noticing soon. As you know, I've performed tributes to Queen's music under a variety of names, and I'm so grateful for the way you've followed me and the music over the years; ultimately, my team and I know that this can be confusing to you and the marketplace - and we are going to remedy some of that!
In 2020, on a 20-date tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland, we performed for the first time under the banner "ONE VISION OF QUEEN," and we immediately fell in love with the name, and added the song "One Vision" to our set, which has now become one of our staples from night to night. I love this name because it truly best describes who we are and what we do as a band, striving to be the most note-for-note-authentic, and exciting tribute in the world. As I've said from the very beginning, for us, it's all about the music. Anyone who has seen my shows knows it's a different kind of tribute, in which I weave my own personal story with Queen and their music through the evening, without imitation, always approaching the original material with reverence, as well as the enormous sense of freedom Queen themselves are known for in their live performances.
Though we are changing names, from The Ultimate Queen Celebration to ONE VISION OF QUEEN, the core band itself remains the same. Brandon, Tristan, Mike and Oskar - who I consider some of the finest musicians in the world - are looking forward to joining me in all the upcoming shows and reaching even more audiences worldwide. Together, we will be visiting new cities, new countries, working new songs into the set list, and will even be releasing a live album coming this Fall - stay tuned for all the above!
In 2023 we have multiple international tours already in the works, to be announced soon, and we are focussed on bringing ONE VISION OF QUEEN, and the music of Queen, to new venues and markets across North America, as well as internationally. And while you may see me performing Queen with other configurations, my band ONE VISION OF QUEEN is my primary and major focus, going forward.
Thank you for giving me the absolute best job on the planet! I couldn't be more grateful for you. Let's keep on rock and rolling, and I'll see you on the road!

My dad saw Queen live 5 times and was a fan back in the days when only a couple hundred people were at the gigs. He said Marc was even better the last time we saw him 👍 Legends are made

One Vision of Queen .... also the sense of a group coming together to direct their focus as One Vision of Queen. Mission Statement & Vision are elements of business organizations to really guide themselves and communicate outwardly what they're all about. The title is like an innuendo! Bravo!

Just saw Marc and the band in Milwaukee. The show was spectacular (no surprise there), and brings so much joy to those in attendance! Looking forward to catching additional shows in the area!

I am really happy that the Queen thing is so big for you and everyone else, it is keeping the live aspect of Queen going for new and old followers, however...... One of my favorite albums, out of hundreds I have, is IMPERSONATOR, such a fantastic piece of work, but I want more. Will you / are you working on another (excluding Christmas). You are a natural and your own material is excellent.

You are my favorite contemporary singer, not because of your similarity in Freddie's voice but because you really are a GREAT SINGER, also because you are a great performer and in fact I enjoy your own songs more than Queen covers. I would love a new album, I Love Impersonator

It’s sooooooo hard to convince Marc to add at least Paradise - since it’s trending - to his concert set. I would skip Ave Maria and do Paradise instead! Next time I am at his concert, I am going to chant “Paradise! Paradise!” Until he plays it! Seriously, peops! Muse would kill for that song!

Marc, I know that you as a singer want to have your own thing not tied to repeat queen songs. I totally get it. I'm sure that you're one of the most talented singers in the world. But, what you do with Freddie's voice is a real miracle! I was at Queen's Live Killers tour 1982 in Brazil. And if you come, I'm sure that I'm going to see you at your show Queen One Vision, down here. I love what you are doing! Thank you to getting here (Brazil) someday in the future.

They decided to go on a break as a band, with most of the guys getting married and starting families. Jason Germaine is doing music mastering, Glenn Lavender has a bee farm and meadery, and Jeremy Thiessen is an investments counselor. The last time they all got together was to celebrate their former music label, Centricity, (that they were the launch artists for) anniversary. Jason still works with Marc on some recordings. Marc has played at Glenn's farm. And they are all just getting on with life in the way that is best for them.
