Freddie Mercury, born Farrokh Bulsara on September 5, 1946, in Stone Town, Zanzibar, was the son of Bomi and Jer Bulsara.
His parents were Parsis of Indian origin who practiced Zoroastrianism, and his father worked as a cashier for the British Colonial Office.
Freddie spent much of his early life surrounded by a mix of cultures, which would later influence his creativity and outlook on life.
At the age of eight, he was sent to boarding school in Panchgani, near Bombay (now Mumbai), India. It was there that he first displayed his musical talent, learning piano and developing a strong singing voice.
He also formed a school band called The Hectics, performing rock and roll songs popular at the time. During these school years, he began to be called “Freddie,” a name that replaced his given one among friends and classmates.
In 1964, political unrest in Zanzibar forced the Bulsara family to relocate to England, where they settled in Middlesex.
Freddie continued his education at Isleworth Polytechnic and later studied graphic design at Ealing Art College.
His childhood, spent moving between Zanzibar, India, and England, gave him a diverse cultural background and an early love for music and art, both of which laid the foundation for his future career as the legendary frontman of Queen.
