About Warren Vernon-Driscoll
Born on the Eastern Cape of South Africa in 1992, Warren Vernon-Driscoll has spent his young life gathering musical experiences most young South Africans only dream of, commencing his vocal training as Head Chorister at Drakensberg Boys Choir, before continuing his training at Kearsney College and joining the prestigious South African Youth Choir.
This culminated in Warren’s acute sense of musicality and a voice so warm, clear and mesmerizing that it was once described as “annoyingly good”.
Career highlights include sharing stages with Luciano Pavarotti, Joshua Bell and the Soweto String Quartet, performing for Bishop Desmond TuTu, Bono and Saul Kerzner, performing on-field at the Cape Town 7s international rugby tournament and touring to every corner of the globe from China, Japan and Taiwan to Germany, USA, Australia and New Zealand.
Since 2018, Warren has been putting his extraordinary voice to epic use, singing some of the hardest vocal parts ever written, in his starring role as Freddie Mercury in Showtime Australia’s long-running hit stage show Queen: It’s a Kinda Magic. He has made his name around the world in this role, particularly for being the only professional Freddie tribute artist to sing all songs in their original key AND play the piano and guitar live on stage. Tours have included Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Canada and South Africa.
