2014 Edinburgh Fringe
McQueen: McQueen
When comedian/producer McQueen Adams called up Timothy Oakley of Phantogram fame he wanted to create something nobody had ever seen before. So that's what they did! They formed McQueen and have created an audio/video world of live comedy, music and parody! 'An original show that showcases immense talent and wow factor' (HuffingtonPost.co.uk). 'It was like watching Jimmy Fallon and Reggie Watts' love child bringing down the house!' (Buzzfeed.com). 'Nothing I have ever seen compares to the originality and hilarity that went down last night! So much going on with one constant! Funny!' (CNN News).

The McQueen Adams three minute interview
When US comedian, musician and producer McQueen Adams called up his mate Timothy Oakley stating that he wanted to create something nobody had ever seen before... they created McQueen. Martin Walker finds out more.
Martin Walker, Broadway Baby, 2nd July 2014More details
Whilst touring with Radiohead one fateful night in Miami, McQueen Adams impressed the band with an impersonation so fresh an idea was born. Together with drummer Timothy Oakley (Phantogram), Adams has created a fusion of music, comedy and video, which parodies pop stars, movies and a variety of celebrities. It's a jamboree of songs, stunts and sketches, and the material's range stretches from subjects as varied as the sounds of Daft Punk to the magic of the wizard Gandalf, with some Jason Statham, Orlando Bloom and Coldplay along the way.
Transmitting a hi-tech audio-visual experience, McQueen and Oakley create an incredibly unique new universe. It collides with planet Edinburgh for the first time this summer, so prepare for a blast!
