“Brian May’s Red Special was a spiritual guiding light in this project, providing an example of something iconic and recognizable and truly original, becoming a huge part of its master’s and the whole band’s sound.

 

I wanted something similar myself, something that would have a life of its own.

 

I think The Imperial Unicorn achieves that and really puts me in my role when my band takes the stage.”
