James Kettle's Comedian Bio

Bio

James Kettle is a stand-up comedian and writer-for-hire. He is not a happy person. James likes to describe his comedy as “bleak” and “interminable”, and says that the fact that people are willing to laugh at him on a regular basis is in many ways “the final insult”. He believes everyone is out to get him, and employs humour as a defence mechanism. Ha ha ha. In Spring 2007, James will be appearing in “28 Acts In 28 Minutes” on BBC Radio 4, as well as starring in his own self-penned sketch show pilot, “James Kettle’s Skyscraping Ambitions”, on BBC7. "James Kettle has a distinct persona that I think will take him a long way" - Stephanie Merritt, comedy critic of the Observer “Like a cross between Simon Amstell and Bill Hicks, his dark twisted and deadpan take on life had me laughing throughout…I loved him!” BBC Three Counties “Refreshing tongue-in-cheek philosophicomedy…somewhere between Eeyore and Simon Munnery” Daily Information “There’s definitely a place for angry young men. James Kettle is desperately angry – but very good.” Russell Howard, speaking in The London Paper

Influences

"I believe the common denominator of the Universe is not harmony, but chaos, hostility and murder." Werner Herzog

TV Shows

Films

..> This is a recording of part of my set I done at the Up The Creek club in Greenwich. This is not really a film, but I reckon it's better than Pirates Of The Caribbean II. That was like a big old cinematic shit.

Albums

I have two copies of the Elvis Costello and the Attractions album "Trust", and will happily sell or swap one of the copies with another collector. My favourite song on the album is "Pretty Words".

In The Twee Small Hours - Gavin Osborn	Jun 7 2007 11:50 AM hello there, thought you might like to know you can pre-order 'In The Twee Small Hours' now. if you pre-order you get a lovely bonus homemade C15 cassette with three non-album songs on it. it's wrapped in brown paper and string, which is inherently good. and you get your album before it's in the shops, just like a cool kid.
Big Rich	Jun 2 2007 12:31 PM Congratulations! This is a generic message to let you know that after a bit of a switcharoo you have either retained your position in - or have been promoted to - my top friends list. So…Either I know who you are in real life and you are actually my friend and I think you are cool, or you are someone I barely know who is cool and successful and will make my profile look impressive by your inclusion on it. You know who you are… Either way, you should be very proud of this honour – I am, let’s be honest, fantastic and brilliant. So you should feel very special - and not in an educationally subnormal way. Hurrah!
