Andy Robinson

Andy Robinson is a comedian. These are some things he's done...

He has done over 2000 gigs all over the place, including yer Glee Clubs, Comedy Stores, Highlights and Jongleurs and other beaten tracks as well as a slew of ones off it... like in an exhibition room in an art gallery for instance.

Also he's worked as a warm up artist for loads of popular shows on television such as Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Shooting Stars, Later with Jools Holland, Jonathan Ross as well dozens of others you may know... and some you definitely won't. He is still relieved that What's In Your Celebrity Fridge? never made it to series.

If more trumpets are to be blown Andy has also been the support act for Sean Lock, Rich Hall and Paddy McGuiness. He is also known as comedy legend Jo Brand's regular support act, and has worked with her for the past ten years... alternatively he once supported jazz legend John MacLaughlin, who later gave him a right ticking off.

He has also written and performed for Virgin Radio's breakfast show and other various radio programmes... although he was sacked from some of them.

Andy also wrote and presented/hosted a music programme for ITV1 called Earshot where he interviewed the likes of Amy Winehouse, Keane and Razorlight... as well as people with lesser profile but arguably better songs.

'Andy Robinson is an absolute joy to work with... self-deprecating, generous, very funny and relaxed' – Jo Brand

James Sherwood

BBC New Comedy Awards 2004 – Runner Up
FHM Holsten Pils Stand-Up Award 2004 – Runner Up

James Sherwood has become one of the country's foremost comedy writers and continues to rapidy ascend the stand-up circuit. Having received the BBC Radio Entertainment writers' bursary in 2008, James contributes the funnies to radio shows across the BBC, including The Now Show, The News Quiz and BBC7's new topical comedy sketch show, Tilt.

As well as that, he regularly reviews the newspapers on Sky News, writes a regular blog on the Guardian website and spends most Sundays singing in a church choir, despite not actually being religious.

His debut Edinburgh show in 2006, 'I Know What You Did Last Sunday', was a total sell-out and was followed in similar fashion with 2007's offering, 'James Sherwood's Somewhat Premature Review Of 2007'. He plans to take his third show, 'Songs Of Music', to the Fringe this summer.

Having originally made a name for himself on the live circuit as a topical comic, in recent years James has incorporated a number of self-penned, original comic songs into his act. Although this involves lugging a keyboard around with him, it's worth it – songs about grammatical inaccuracies and failed nightclub courtships have had audiences literally crying with laughter.

"brilliantly conceived and very funny ... Sherwood has phenomenal stage presence" The Scotsman
"his piece grammatically correcting songs is worth the ticket price along ... clever, funny and will have fans singing along" Chortle
"anyone who can make a song about inflation and unemployment funny is surely worthy of your attention" **** Three Weeks
"savage satire" Sunday Times
"fantastic" TimeOut
"piercing" Evening Standard
"sharp, precise and ingenious" Chortle

Adam Rowe

Adam Rowe, from Liverpool, first landed on stage back in 2010 and went full-time just two years later.

Popular with both audiences and his peers due to his affable nature, Adam is a very likeable person and performer.

The, often honest, stories in his stand-up routines leave an audience feeling like they've made a new friend come the end of his performances, and it's not uncommon for them to be screaming for more.
