Paul Pirie began his stand-up career in 2006 quickly establishing himself on the Scottish comedy circuit. With a driving force for achievement, Paul worked his way into the London clubs and was launched onto the UK comedy scene, emerging as one of the biggest Scottish acts on the UK comedy circuit. Paul's career has encompassed TV, (appearing in Ikea's April 2011 comedy-based TV advert), Film and Radio alongside his burgeoning skill as a stand-up. His hilarity and comedic ability have earned him huge popularity with comedy goers and bookers across the world, gigging as far abroad as Australia and for diverse audiences such as The Armed Forces. Paul’s work is superbly individual and put simply, delivers a refreshing burst of laugh-out-loud comedy that leaves audiences in raptures. Now living in Essex, Paul Pirie is a unique, vibrant comedian who appears regularly at all the main comedy clubs in the UK. Matt Price is known for having some of the most extraordinary and outrageous stories drawn from the wilder side of life. Hailing from Cornwall; he brings true warmth and heart to the stage whilst finding some audacious laughs in the most unexpected places. Matt’s charm and talent have made him a favourite on the UK and International circuit and whether he is comparing or performing a set, he has the expertise to win over even the toughest of audiences. Mike Gunn’s history is as interesting and entertaining as his comedy. A misspent youth and a series of grim jobs cultivated his cynical outlook on life and a perverse desire led him to the world of stand-up. A self-confessed pessimist, he describes himself as “not a natural choice for a career in laughter”. He has a rare ability to walk close to the line of what audiences find acceptable and yet still remain likeable and funny. His reputation for being a bit unfriendly, a touch dark and even morose is really not true. In real life, he’s loving, warm and philanthropic. Just a bit misunderstood.
