"Alternative comedy is my favourite, because it's undefinable in its irregularity."
Blizzard Comedy, 11th June 2020Edinburgh Fringe: 5 great Northern comedians
Many of the ace up-and-coming Northern comedians we've profiled in The Skinny are now taking their first full hour to the Edinburgh Fringe. With the festival scarily imminent, there's no better time to check in and ask how much they're absolutely bricking it.
John Stansfield, The Skinny, 21st July 2016New act of the month: David Stanier
You know David Stanier? He's that nice lad; bit silly. He talks about ghosts, dogs and jigsaws. We first spotted David at a gig in York earlier this year and he blew us away. So much so we've kept tabs on him ever since (no, not in that way), and we were delighted to hear he won the Hilarity Bites' New Act of the Year competition last month. With that in mind, then, we thought we'd catch up with David for a chat to talk about his comedy. He's our New Act of the Month for August!
