Brendon Burns is not politically correct
or incorrect making him a rare socio-political comic willing to oppose
all schools of thought. With this in mind, it's no surprise that Burns
has been compared to Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Sam Kinison and Bill
Hicks. Those who enjoy this brand of hard-hitting comedy will be glad
to know there is a developing young voice out there. This highly
prolific artist just goes from strength to strength along with his
ever growing underground cult following. Brendon uses his confrontational and
up-front style of comedy to capture his audience with a proverbial
slap in the face. It may initially appear that he is a purveyor of
hate but his approach means that he is continually throwing up
questions - both of himself and of the audience, on subjects most
comedians would shy away from.
His stage presence is electric, his
material provocative and his insight surprisingly subtle.

'Burns is the proud creator of the
world's most gratuitous joke, but look past the bluster and the
bravado and you will find a highly intelligent and astute social
commentator.. Honest!' - The Guardian |
