MARCUS MEGASTAR

Following a coma in 2014, battle with substance abuse (notably chems on the gay scene) and walking out of a Masters degree in the third year of university, Marcus decided to stop ignoring their true self, who as a 6 year old, dreamed of growing up and being like the idols on their bedroom wall). And thus, they set out on the road to megastardom.

Marcus did a three-week run at the Edinburgh Festival with their show ‘Live & Controversial’ and joins QUEERFM to talk about their latest releases including their new release ROLLERBLADES coming out on International LGBT+ #PrideDay on the 28th of June (with the world premiere here on QueerFM May 14th). You can catch up with the artist on all the socials at @marcusmegastar
