I encourage everyone who has an interest to go vote for Marc Martel, he truly has a great talent, and I would love to see him win this...
I am a big Queen fan from back in the day, but am really impressed with Marc's singing and his own band, downhere, both musically and their message..
Here is the link to the Queen site where you can vote:
www.queenextravaganza.com/auditions
He does a great version of Crazy Little Thing Called Love for round two...
Marc's first entry, "Somebody to Love", just jaw dropping
Doing STL on the Ellen show:
His own band, downhere doing STL
Downhere live, Sombody to Love
Marc singing with Renaissance Church in Summit, NJ. doing
Downhere song Surrender, vocal very much in the Freddie Mercury style..
Downhere's lastest video,
he’s a fantastic singer! I never get tired of watching his rendition of “someone to love”, i guess filmed in his bedroom
Yea, The first time I heard him do Sombody to Love, I swear he was lip syncing, until he got to the ad lib part...
Do you mind if we share on facebook?
These guys are good! Thanks for the links ......................... FRegards
Here is his facebook page... Marc Martel Music
and his band's Downhere
But make sure you go to the official Queen Extravaganza site and vote...
I think these guys are great too. And its sort of uncanny how much he sounds and even looks like Freddie...
I had the pleasure of seeing Marc Martel perform “Somebody to Love” at the Called to Love Concert last Sunday night. He sounds like, looks like and moves like Freddie Mercury. Truly amazing talent. Downhere performs some of the best Christian music around. I predict we’ll see more of Marc Martel in the days ahead.
we saw him live a few weeks back. His voice is remarkable.
Somehow, though, I think winning this contest will be his downfall.

Sorry about the multiple posts, I’m using a touch screen and there is no feedback when you touch the post button.
You saw them in Wilmington? I was going to go that night, take the whole family, but my Son was really sick, so we didn’t drive down...... ;^( I saw a clip of STL from that night on the youtubes somewhere. They filmed their auditions for round two I think the day or two before that show....
I hope winning it would not be a negative for him and his band.....
I also listened to interview they did a week or so ago about it, he did seem to be starting to have reservations about the whole circus that has sprung up around it...and basically said he would have a real problem singing certain Queen songs, which I can understand.....
Yea, that’s a decision that will need to be covered in a lot of prayer.
As easy a vote as I’ve ever cast. Simply amazing. Also “shared” on Facebook.
