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.
