Kinda Queen

Kinda Queen, hailing from Kingston upon Hull, stands out as one of the UK's most dynamic and authentic Queen tribute acts. Eschewing traditional tribute theatrics in favour of a pure musical celebration, this group delivers faithful yet invigorating renditions of Queen’s classics. Led by vocalist Ollie Gibbs, whose powerful delivery recalls the iconic stage presence of Freddie Mercury, and accompanied by the talents of Paul Rabie, Jim Waltham, and Carl Rendle, Kinda Queen reimagines Queen’s legendary catalogue with both precision and flair. Their approach centres on the music itself, bringing stadium anthems like “Bohemian Rhapsody” and rock staples such as “We Will Rock You” to life with fresh enthusiasm and remarkable musicianship.

In September 2025, Kinda Queen headlined at Social in Hull, bringing their signature sound to an audience eager to relive the grandeur of Queen’s discography. The band’s performances are marked by an emphasis on musical authenticity and a deep reverence for the original material, ensuring a truly immersive live music experience for both longtime Queen devotees and those discovering these timeless songs for the first time. Their dedication to capturing the essential spirit of Queen while infusing each concert with their own energy continues to earn them critical acclaim and a growing fanbase across the UK tribute circuit.
