June 1st 2019: I've gone viral! In 2007 I spent 3 months in Ayia Napa as a Christina Aguilera tribute and I tweeted about it and for some reason it captured some prolific imaginations. It was shared by James Corden, Caitlin Moran and Prime Minister of Hearts, Ed Miliband. Here is the tweet thread

October 30th 2018: I'm singing a fantastic Alexander Bermange song at the West End Wilma Awards on November 4th at the Arts Theatre right in the goddamn West End,

September 30th 2018: 10 years ago Nick Helm produced a horror-musical revue at the Edinburgh Fringe and it's back for 3 nights at the Pleasance Islington for Halloween. Very excited to be able to make use of how creepy I am. Details on my GIGS page.

September 14th 2018: Gonna be on the Reasons to be Cheerful podcast with Ed Milliband and Geoff Lloyd. They say never meet your heroes but I just did and it was brilliant. Got to tell Ed all about dressage, think I really made a difference to the nation. Anyway, the podcast's out on Monday so give it a listen.

September 6th 2018: I recorded a number for Nick Helm's new album. It finally allowed me to find a use for my "creepy child" voice. More to come on that...

August 31st 2018: That's Edinburgh done for another year! Best reception I've ever had for a show and even got enough shiny pennies to treat myself to a Pret wrap on the way home. Super Sonic 90s Kid was super well-attended and well-received and Jonny Woo's All-Star Brexit Cabaret played to full houses of 200 almost every day of the run. Also got to do a small bit every day in Luke McQueen's show which was always a blast. Having attended all his previous shows multiple times it's nice to know that eventually you can Stockholm Syndrome a comedian in to putting you in their show.
