Leicester Comedy Festival Award nominee and Musical Comedy Awards finalist Alex Camp (“without doubt one of best musical acts currently on the northern comedy circuit”) is bringing his new solo show to the Free Fringe.Spend an hour with this musician-turned-comedian who blends sharp stand up with songs that are as catchy as they are hilarious. 2000s nostalgia, old-fashioned foreplay, how to break bad news with a guitar and a ginger guy’s plea to end racism; all the important subjects are covered. Alex opened for Tony Law on his Spring 2024 tour and has appeared at comedy clubs like Just the Tonic and Manford's. “..an immensely promising voice with an eye both for a great joke and a great song" Paul Sinha

August 28, 2024  One4Review | | | Hitting the right notes. A major artist in the making.Alex Camp (and he’s not) is on his first year at the Fringe. He brings a wealth of experience, various 90s indie bands and has been on the circuit earning his stripes, winning the Comedy Rooms New Act of the Year 2022.To the act itself, it’s a lovely 1990s onwards journey through his life. However, this is not a (clear throat) me-me-me-me show. It covers his family (“mum and dad work hard in the VHS Factories in the 90s”), traveling, working in Japan, relocating to Manchester. Jokes fly fast and furious, working the crowd well when things perhaps go over the younger in the audience.And there is the original songs. They are good, bordering on genius.Blues ballad I’m White is a highlight. Other leftfield choices include Paedo Swans, I’ve Got Your Dog and Hungry Butts.Comparisons will be made quite rightly to The Flight Of The Concords and Tenacious D.However, there are songs, about Vin Diesel’s Riddick and Kamala Harris remind me of Adam Sandlers song structure in his early career.Edinburgh can be a boot camp for first time artist to hone and tweak their act, this is not the case here, this guys the real deal.A hidden gem in the lofts of the Fringe. He is going to have his time in the sunlight shortly.Get a ticket “Throuple” fast (see the show to get the meaning). Click Here |
