    Killer Queen Conversations, Queen Fan Podcast EP04 : Philip Copping of the Queen Tribute Band Supersonic Queen

    Welcome to Killer Queen Conversations Episode 4 - The Queen Fan Podcast from Shane's Queen Site. In Killer Queen Conversations EP04 we meet Philip Copping of the Queen Tribute Band Supersonic Queen.  Philip Copping of Supersonic Queen What does it take to step into the yellow jacket of the greatest frontman of all time?  In this episode, I’m joined by Philip Copping, lead singer of the premier UK tribute band Supersonic Queen. Philip shares his incredible journey from a cathedral choirboy to performing 100 shows a year as Freddie Mercury. We dive deep into the technicalities of Queen’s music, the psychology of performing, and a massive "secret" project … In this interview, we discuss: • The "Flash Gordon" Spark: How a 10-year-old Philip found his "jumping on point" for Queen fandom. • Overcoming Stage Fright: How adopting the persona of Freddie Mercury acted as a "mask" that allowed Philip to conquer performance anxiety in his 40s. • Life on the Road: The reality of performing 85–100 shows a year and the unique bond between tribute band members (and how they mirror the real Queen!). • Musical Deep Dives: From the Lydian mode to the genius of the Sheer Heart Attack album. About Philip Copping & Supersonic Queen Philip joined Supersonic Queen five years ago, turning a lifelong passion into a full-time career. The band is renowned for its high-energy, authentic recreations of Queen's greatest hits and deep cuts, fostering a global community through their "Friends of Supersonic Queen" group.
