Prince Poppycock to Guest on The Jimmy Star Show Wednesday October 23rd, 2013

NEW YORK - Oct. 20, 2013 - PRLog -- Prince Poppycock (John Quale)  will be a featured guest on The Jimmy Star Show live radio show hosted by King of Cool, Jimmy Star along with Cool Man About Town Ron Russell to discuss his music,  career,  and the entertainment industries at large. The Jimmy Star Show is radio's coolest hit show, featuring the coolest in music, entertainment, fashion and pop culture, all from a fun industry insider perspective in a completely live, unedited fast-paced two-hour conversational format.

John Quale has been singing since he could speak. At 11, he had his first professional gig at the Kennedy Center, with the Washington Opera children’s choir. He continued his studies at competitive Interlochen Arts Camp, performing and touring with musicals and choirs through his high school and college years.

Inspired by his love for a wide range of musical styles and artists like David Bowie, Depeche Mode, opera, madrigals, Gregorian chant, The Smiths, and Gilbert and Sullivan, John began to write and record his own music while still a teen. In college, he was lead singer and songwriter for Chicago synth pop band Endora; later, after moving to Los Angeles, he wrote, produced, and released his solo debut album, Worldview, which is now available on iTunes.

While in LA, John was critically acclaimed for his role in smash musical “The Beastly Bombing,” which won the LA Weekly Theater Award for Best Musical and enjoyed two short off-Broadway runs in NYC. He also wrote a song for the documentary Rise Up and Shout – a film about emerging young gay artists in Los Angeles that recently premiered on the Sundance Channel.

In 2006 John created the character of Prince Poppycock: a roguish operatic dandy with a persona and repertoire that drew on all John’s varied influences as a performer and a musician. Described by style maven and pop culture journalist Rose Apodaca as “a rock star in Rococo France,” Poppycock’s look and sound combined elements of glam rock, light opera, synth pop, and Western art music in a way that was fresh; sometimes startling; and always entertaining, doing each of those traditions justice yet transcending the past – rather than simply updating it – to become something truly original.

The glittering reign of Prince Poppycock commenced when John was invited to perform the Figaro aria, ‘Largo al Factotum,’ at a friend’s club. There was one stipulation: he must wear a wig. John appeared in a towering powdered confection to highlight how the song is about being a fabulous hairdresser, and Poppycock’s royal presence was instantly in demand. Witty and glamorous, with a powerful trained voice, Prince Poppycock has opened for the Dresden Dolls; performed at extravagant special events like New York’s Dances of Vice; and opened for performance art legend Ann Magnuson at downtown LA’s prestigious Redcat Theater.

Rock opera dandy Prince Poppycock became one of reality television’s most unique, creative, and recognizable stars when he appeared on the 2010 season of NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.” Poppycock - whom judge Sharon Osbourne called “the male Lady Gaga” for his outrageous costumes and extravagant production numbers - was one of the top four finalists out of 120,000 who auditioned for the show, which was #1 that season. He toured the US on the 36-stop AGT tour later that same year.
