ANDREW BIRD

TAKEN SERIOUSLY

After his TV appearance on "The Russell Howard Hour"
Andrew supported Russell Howard on his massive national tour including three shows at Liverpool Empire Theatre and four shows at The Manchester Opera House.

Everything is taken so seriously now. If it's going to be up to Andrew to point out how ridiculous it all is then he's willing to take that job on. From race and religion to deodorant adverts, being diagnosed with sleep apnea, and people that have a flag on their house.

Having previously supported Russell at Bristol's Ashton Gate Football stadium he's also supported Rhod Gilbert, Rob Brydon, America's Brian Regan, and Michelle Wolfe on their only London shows and Michael McIntyre on an entire arena tour including Wembley and the 02. He's written on the TV shows Jon Richardson's Ultimate Worrier and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.

"A brilliantly funny comedian" Russell Howard

"Funny as Hell" Rhod Gilbert

"Truly an excellent comedian" Michael McIntyre

"Very punctual" Rob Brydon
