About Me |
|
| Australia’s JAMES HAZELDEN is the Bob Dylan of comedy music – his songs are funny, clever, bitter, soulful, melodious, silly and just a little melancholy. James' new show, FREELOADER makes its World Premier at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It is a darkly funny show of comedic songs and observations about life, death, God, love, sex, ninjas and a whole bunch of other things. JAMES has also been invited to be a special guest comedian at Nicko and Joe’s Bad Film Club, which runs during the Festival. “endearing and harmonious... lunatic lyrics and melodic absurdity… more talent than many chart toppers” - The Scotsman "sensational... brilliant, funny songs" - FringeReport.com James Hazelden writes and performs as a solo artist, as well as with Melbourne fun-rock band, Man Bites God. He plays guitar, piano, cello, accordion, keyboards and sings. He has toured nationally and internationally and has played with/supported Circus Oz, Deborah Conway, The Triffids, The Scared Weird Little Guys, Flight of the Concords,Tim Minchin, Tripod and a whole bunch of other people. |
