While on my daily YouTube trawl I came across Q+PR's first live performance at the UK Hall of Fame.
Apologies if this has been discussed before but who are the backing singers? Usually they'd use the Fabba girls from the Brian's band the the SAS shows but I've not seen these before. Any ideas?

You wish.
They are an actual band called The Polyphonic Spree. Quite popular.

Thank you !
Fairly certain that the backing singer in the middle is Treena Morris - was support for the electric fire tour.

The Polyphonic Spree were the singers that came on stage in robes at the end of Alright Now, not the three backing singers on stage with Queen and PR

The backing singers performing with Queen were Mirriam Stockley (nearest the camera) and Treana Morris of the Wire Daisies (centre) I'm sorry but I don't remember who the third one was.
I think Miriam Stockley did both the Mercury tribute gig at Wembley Stadium and Brian's first solo tour in South America.
Also, she did Guitar Legends for Brian in Seville.
